Meet my family. There are five of us – my parents, my elder brother, my baby sister and me. First, meet my mum and dad, Jane and Michael. My mum enjoys reading and my dad enjoys playing chess with my brother Ken. My mum is slim and rather tall. She has long red hair and big brown eyes. She has a very pleasant smile and a soft voice. My mother is very kind and understanding. We are real friends. She is a housewife. As she has three children, she is always busy around the house. She takes care of my baby sister Meg, who is only three months old. My sister is very small and funny. She sleeps, eats and sometimes cries. We all help our mother and let her have a rest in the evening. Then she usually reads a book or just watches TV. My father is a doctor. He is tall and handsome. He has short dark hair and gray eyes. He is a very hardworking man. He is rather strict with us, but always fair. My elder brother Ken is thirteen, and he is very clever. He is good at Maths and always helps me with it, because I can hardly understand all these sums and problems. Ken has red hair and brown eyes. My name is Jessica. I am eleven. I have long dark hair and brown eyes. I am not as clever as my brother, though I try to do my best at school too. I am fond of dancing. Our dancing studio won The Best Dancing Studio 2015 competition last month. I am very proud of it. I also like to help my
The majority of schoolchildren today get pocket money. It’s due to the fact that modern parents have less time to consider their children’s needs. They eagerly give them pocket money to solve this contradiction. The question is whether this method is useful and how considerable are children when spending this money. Some people think that teenagers have become more serious and sensible in this respect, while others think that they cannot deal with money and spend it wisely. Most people think that children buy only useless things. However, it depends on each individual child. There are some youngsters, who buy flowers for their mothers and sisters. Others buy stationery for school or food when they are starving. Notable disadvantage of pocket money is that some children can spend it on cigarettes or other health-threatening habits. That’s when parents should be alarmed. To avoid such situations, they should know exactly what their children are spending money on. Summarizing the above-mentioned viewpoints, I’d like to say that parents should give their children only limited amount of pocket money for their daily necessities, such as buying snacks and food, pens and pencils, little toys or presents for friends
