Parent to Chlid

1. Parents pressure their children everyday. They do this because they want their children to succeed and have a better little they did. Some parents, do it because they want to live through their children.

2. They have conflicts about grades,rules, chores, friendship, relationships, gender roles, religion, and the parent's  relationship with their children.

3. I feel people can be anything they want to be if they try hard enough. People always give up before they try because they think they can not do it. If you work hard enough, you can achieve anything.

4. Not all conflicts have winners. There are same conflicts in which everyone loses. For example, you win a fight but you go to jail because the person's in the hospital.

5.my mom is like a Chinese parent. Like Chinese parents, she values blood and family, loyalty, and promises.

Writing Problems

When I read my writing I realised that ; I need to abate the number of times I misuse a word. I used the word "and" when I should have the word "or". Another problem I had was commonly confused words. I know them in my head, but when I put the words on paper they come out wrong.  I wish to correct this by having a parent, teacher, or partner go or my writing with me; if I can't do that I will make sure to remember which word means what. I will do this by studying the words I keep getting confused. I also have a problem with leaving out words. My problem is that I remember to add them in my head, but forget to add them on the paper. I will correct the problem by looking over my paper when I have the time or have someone else look over it. I can also write some essays in my spare time ; I feel like this will be a good idea because it will help not forget to add words. Lastly, I have trouble with timed writing because when it's close for the timer to stop and i'm not done I start to panic. When this happens I start to make simple mistakes. I plan to solve this problem by writing timed sometimes on my own.
