Mr. Smith

Dear Sir,

I think it is important for children to learn how to do cho

res and help their parents with housework. It?s not enou

gh to just get good grades at school. Children these days

depend on their parents too much. They?re always askin

g, “Could you get this for me?” or “Could you help me wi

th that?” Doing chores helps to develop children?s indep

endence and teaches them how to look after themselves.

It also helps them to understand the idea of fairness. Sin

ce they live in one house with their parents, they should

know that everyone should do their part in keeping it cle

an and tidy. Our neighbor?s son got into a good college

but during his first year, he had no idea how to take care

of himself. As a result, he often fell ill and his grades dro

pped. The earlier kids learn to be independent, the bette

r it is for their future. Ms. Miller

It?s a relaxing and peaceful place near a lake. The tea art

alized why my grandpa loves drinking tea and collecting

tea sets.
