1. Our parents tell us they love us unconditionally. But I (
doubt what they say. Do you want to know why? (
Whenever I do what they want me to do, they praise me to
the skies. But if I ask them if I can do something I want to
do, they won't let me, or they scold me. So it seems to me
that their love is based on my doing only what they want.

My mom has a job, so she is always busy, whether

at home or at work. She is even busy on weekends.
She is always too tired to spend time with me. I don't
like my mom having a job outside the home. I want
her to quit her job and stay home to be with me.
Jane : I know moms with jobs have less time to play with
their children. But they have their jobs because of
their families. They make extra money so the
family can have a better future. We should
understand them and try to love them even more
while we are with them.

Q1. Who do you agree with?

Q2. What do you do to help your mom?

Dick : Parents have a
duty to force us to
study hard. We
3I must obey them.
Js. They have a lot of
f,n't experience with the
ant world, so they know
how important it is
ith for us to study. If we understand that they love and
lf care about us, we won't be angry with them. They
are our parents, not Policemen.
Sally : No parent has a right to force us to do what we
e don't want. We children have rights. We all know
all parents love us. But that doesn't mean they are
always right or that we always have to obey them. I
think we are old enough to tell right from wrong by
ourselves. We can think and behave reasonably. I (---.

up. But we must learn from out own mistakes, not
our parents'. (And I know that sometimes they
make mistakes, too!)

Tom : My mom wants me to stop seeing one of my friends

because she thinks he doesn't study hard enough and
is naughty sometimes. But I don't agree. I like him.
We have a lot in common, and I enjoy talking with
him. I think I have the right to decide who my
friends are, not my mom.
Sue : Your mother is afraid your friend is a bad influence
on you. She doesn't want you to getlazy in yourt
schoolwork, like your friend is. She doesn't want you
to get in trouble, like he does. She knows kids tend to
behave the same way their friends do, so she wants
you to have friends who behave well that way,

you will also do the right things more easily.
