Family Reflections
LESSON 14: Sit down and discuss some things that are important to each member in your family. How can you help each other accomplish these things?
My mom and dad want to watch tv and do their hobbies when they're not at work. I want to finish my homework as fast and efficiently as possible. We could just mind our own businesses to do the things we want to do. My mom and dad sometimes will help me do my homework, but they don't need help to watch TV.
