My name is Li Jun. I come from No.1 Middle School I am fourteen years old.
I think it’s important for children to help the parents with housework. First, children these days depend on their parents too much. They don’t know how to take care of themselves when their parents are not at home. Doing chores can help to develop children’s independence and teaches them how to take care of themselves. Second, doing chores is good for our health. Third, we can make our parents happy by helping them do chores. Parents are tired because they have to work late. Also, we can develop our abilities by doing chores.
On weekends, I usually help my parents do the housework, such as do the dishes or clean the rooms. They are very happy when they get home. Whatever you do, don’t forget to help parents do chores. It is important for us to learn how to do chores and to be independent.
