Dear Sir or Madam,
I think that doing housework is good for children. I disagree that
doing chores at home is a waste of time. Doing chores helps to
develop children's independence. And I think it's fair for children to
help their parents do something at home, because their parents have
to work hard all day, just the same as they have stress on study.
Children these days need to get good grades and take good care of
3themselves as well.
I think children should share some housework with their parents,
because it's a good way to learn how to look after themselves. For
example, they should help their parents do some cooking, because
when they are alone at home, they can get themselves something to
eat.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
remember
One can’t expect to control the world without sweeping his room

一屋不扫何以扫天下。
It's our duty to help parents do chores.帮父母做家务是我们的责
任。
