This is Part Three of our survey about family life. We interviewed two students, Josh Franklin and Alice Gomez, about their weekend chores. They told us about the chores they did last weekend.

On Saturday morning, Josh had two big chores to do. He didn’t like washing the clothes, but he enjoyed cleaning the garage(车库). “I listened to the radio and sang my favorite songs while I worked,” he said.

Alice had to go to the store and buy food for the family on Saturday morning. Her mother usually goes with her, but this time she went alone. “I liked shopping for food. I bought things I liked to eat and my parents paid for it.”

Josh and Alice both liked helping with their parents the yard sales. “I liked talking to all the people,” said Josh. Alice said, “ My parents gave me part of the money. Now I can buy anything I want.”

Dear Emma,

I have a problem and I need your help. My parents are really strict and they never let me do anything! For example, when I go out with my friends, my mom always asks, “Where are you going? Who are you going with?”Two months ago, I got an earring(耳环) and my father was really angry. He told me to take it out. My parents want to control everything I do. But I’m 18 years old！I try to talk to my mom and dad, but they don’t listen. They say, “This is our house and

these are our rules.” Then we have a fight. Why is it so hard for them to understand me?

Josh

Dear Josh,

You asked, “Why is it so hard for them to understand me?”That’s a good question. You’re growing up, but often, it’s hard for your parents to see this. To them, you are still a child and they want to protect(保护) you.

Sometimes, it’s hard to talk to your parents. Here’s an idea: Write your mother and father a letter. Explain your feelings. In the letter, describe your friends. Tell your parents about yourself and your life, too. Then maybe they will understand you better. After your parents read the letter, try to talk to them. I hope this helps!
