ielts speaking Part 2 and 3 about Describe A Good Parent You Know

Well, the stereotype is that the father is the breadwinner! Of the family, the person who makes the decisions and takes responsibility for the whole family. This can be understandable because the father tends to occupy high positions in society while the mother tends to be housewife or only gets involved in some trivial work like cleaning or babysitting. However, this is not really the case in modern society where freedom and equality is being put a higher emphasis on. Women are as successful as men and are no longer in charge of the monotonous household chores like they were in the past

Well, to the best of my knowledge, despite the increasing popularity of nuclear families, extended ones still exist in our society. Usually both parents and one, two or three kids would live together under the same roof. In other cases, a grandmother or grandmother joins them to take care of the small kids while the parents are away for work, for example. Other less common situations are many generations reside in the same house, usually a multi-story house. Families like these often consist of an uncle, aunt, and their families and so on. Typically, many problems occur when a great many members are in a similar place

Frankly speaking, unlike in Western countries where it is common to send older grandparents to nursing homes, most people are bound by their duty, which means that they should or, in another sense, have to pay back what their parents have given them. As a consequence, the young generations and middle- aged people tend to share the same house with older people. This can be beneficial since small children can receive special care from their grandparents, obtain invaluable hands-on experience and tend to develop a good code of conduct later on.What would children do to make their parents proud? I guess kids can have good performances at school and behave well to their teachers and the elders. Parents usually take a great pride in their kids if their children get a good score at school, or when others tell them that their kids are nice people. As well as this, I deem it a necessity if children help their parents out with mundane tasks ground the house like sweeping the floor, or washing the dishes.

To be honest, they should be given freedom to a certain extent. At this impressionable age, most teenagers can undergo a tough time in their personality growth and they’re particularly rebellious to their parents. Given this, parents should allow them to do what really interests them rather than forcing them to adopt certain behavioural patterns. Having said this, the role of parents is to monitor and advise their children to be on the right path, intervening when possible if their child makes mistakes or does something unacceptable.

I would love to hang out with my families more. As my parents are always tied up at work, we can hardly manage time for one another. So, we often try our best to spend time by having a dinner together at some restaurants at the weekend or see a movie together if time permits. For me, it's much better to build a close-knit family and strengthen our bonds.

Primarily, they are responsible for the safety and upbringing of their children. Obviously, it includes a lot of things, such as feeding them, comforting them and looking after them under any circumstances. They need to make sure that their children have everything they need and are well looked after, have opportunities to learn about things, grow up and develop as well-mannered individuals.

Generally speaking, it’s common for children when they're grown up to take care of their parents, and even grandparents, as best as they can. It’s similar in some ways to looking after children, you know like you should make sure they are safe, that they have the important things they need, that they still feel safe and securewherever they live, either with the family or in a special earing home maybe if they need some special medical care or something like that. In my family, both my grandparents came to live with us in our parents’ home when they were very old and we all helped look after them - sometimes I used to spend hours just talking to them when I was younger. And it’s also important to make sure they still feel valuable and important within the family even though they might be old and frail, they need to know that they are still loved and important as people.

At first, parents’ behaviors influence their children greatly. If parents are polite, generous and kind, their children tend to be like this. Besides, parents have influence on their children in making some great decisions. I think good parents should help their children make better decisions and offer them useful guidance. What’s more, parents’ attitudes to work, marriage and life can also influence their children. The children may lose confidence in love and marriage if their parents often quarrel.
