Let’s talk about your family. What do you appreciate most about your family?                                                                     

I believe that everything has its beginning in the family. Family is very important for every person, because it gives you a sense of stability and tradition, a feeling of having support and understanding. Frankly speaking, it doesn't matter how big your family is at the moment, either you have a big extended family with a lot of distant relatives or your family consists of only your Mum or Granny. We are lucky people to have them. Just imagine you haven't got them, what would your life turn into without their care and love?

Some of my classmates say friends are more important to them. I can't agree on it, friends will come and go but family is always there for me. They feed us when we are babies, teach us to walk when we are toddlers, discourage us from being impolite and teach us to think about other people when we are teenagers. They try to set us off on the right path and want to see us happy and well educated. They are on our side whatever happens in your life, we always feel their love. In a close knit family people respect, forgive and support each other. They find time for each other even when they are busy. I do think the family is very important. Noting else but family can be an emotional centre of people’s lives. Understanding between all members of the family and consideration for others are very important in family relationships. Tenderness, warm-heartedness and respect must always be present in the family to make it friendly.

 

2. Do parents and children have difficulties understanding each other because of the generation gap?

 One of the important problems of all times is a generation gap. Some people believe that teenagers today are generally rude, lazy and ill-behaved. Other people, however, think that teenagers are not so bad. Sometimes people don’t understand teenagers. They don’t understand some problems and things which are very important in teenagers’ life, for example the lifestyles, piercing, tattoos, relationship with friends and teachers. In most cases «new generation» doesn’t understand their parents and becomes depressed because of this. But fortunately, I don’t have such problems with my parents because I think we should simply learn to understand each other.

 

 3. Your friend has just left the family home. What questions will you ask him/her?

Do you miss your family?

 How often do you visit your parents?

 Do you live in a hostel or hire a flat?

 I wonder if you can cook your own meals.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of living away from your parents? 

 

4. What advice can you give to teenagers who hate family obligations?

I’ll explain to them that nowadays, all families have to share the housework because the members of the family have their own responsibilities along the day. Teenagers say that they spend many hours at school or have extra school work, do sports or learn music and do not have enough time to do the chores. But their parents have a strict timetable and they need help when they arrive at home too. It is not fair that, for example, the mother of the family, who has her own job and responsibilities, does all the tasks at home.
From my point of view, households must be shared and teenagers must have specific tasks. For example, easy tasks like cleaning, hoovering or washing the dishes. And it has significant advantages for them, because it prepares them for the future and they become more conscious about real life
