听力原文： When Dorcas Hankin went into the hospital her 19-year-old son Christopher stole her car and sold it for seven days of extravagant life. When the pohce told Dorcas her car had been stolen, she went into shock.

"I just knew Christopher had done it. He'd been threatening to do it for ages. He said the money would be his compensation for an unhappy childhood."

"I knew I had to tell the police, but I couldn't face the thought of shopping my own son. It took me two days to pluck up the courage. But it was the only way to make him stop and think about what he was doing with his life. I also had to take him to court because that was the only way I could claim insurance."

Christopher was given 120 hours of community service and he's now living back at home with his mother. But why would she forgive him so readily？

"Because I do feel guilty about Chirstopher's childhood. Christopher's dad and I split up when he was three and later I remarried. My new husband didn't like having children around, therefore, we sent the boy to a boarding school. But Christopher came home soon. By then I was divorced and he really began to manipulate me. He'd get jobs and quit after two days, saying he couldn't stand authority, then he'd expect me to give him the money to go out.

"I don't earn a lot, but I just couldn't seem to say no to him because I felt the way he'd turned out was partly my fault."

Christopher says:

"I love my mother but I feel angry with her for staying with that man all those years. She should never have married someone who disliked children so much."

"I suppose I've been able to manipulate her in recent years because of her guilt, but what teenager doesn't ？'

"She lets me live with her as she can't bear to see me on the streets but somewhere to sleep is all that she'll give me."
