Go Clean Your Room Right Now!

Parents! although sometimes they may be strict they are there for you all of the way.

I tink the qualities for a good parent are one who sets rules like curfews, be there when there is drama going on, help you when you are struggling to handle sports and school work, some money to have when you are going out with your friends and have food in your house. There are also things they need to help you do to get ready to become an adult.

I think the most important thing a parent can do for a teenager is be there for them when they go through their drama and help keep them into place. By that I mean I know it sucks to have rules but if we didn’t then we would jst get ourselves into trouble and I think no one wants to get caught drinking or anything. They could also start to make them do chores and their own laundry so that they know how to do it when they move out and also know how o cook.

These things will help you get through your university years and will help you get trough your tough teenage years too.

That Seems To Amaze Me!

In school we are doing this big project called TED Talks. It is when we pica global issue and look at t closely. Then we think of ways to help solve it. I have picked Child Agriculture and learned so much about it then I knew before. Some interesting facts that  I found out were:

. 70% of 132 million child laborers work in Agriculture

. They make up to 5 dollars a day

. They cannot go to school and get an education

. They pick such foods as cocoa beans, cotton, cotton seed, chilies, cantaloupe, bananas, and other fruits and veggies

. Kids ages 4-15 work

. Many kids dies from being cut by sharp tools or being crushed by heavy machinery.

I found this topic to be very interesting because I didn’t know about any of this and about how hard their lives are since the consist of working all day in the hot sun then going home too poor shacks and not getting much food. I hope you know what I now now about how hard life can be for some people.
