British teenagers stay 6.7 metres away from 'embarrassing' fathers|英研究:「青少年平均與父親保持6.7公尺距離。」
The tradition of embarrassing fathers is alive and kicking in Britain today a survey has revealed.
In fact British teenagers find their fathers so embarrassing that they stay an average of 6.7 metres away from them if they are out together in public, for fear of being seen by friends.
But maybe the kids should be more grateful as it transpires that the average father also does 627 ‘dad miles’ every year on weekends, ferrying teens to and from parties and other social gatherings, often very late into the evening.
