My pocket money

My pocket money depends on dad's mood, he often gives me 5 dinars a

week but when I don't get good marks, It decreases but most of my friends
get much more. Dad should know that I'm a teenager and what is given
doesn't fill my necessities. of course, when he goes to the supermarket, he is
always able to find the money to buy everything at the supermarket, but can't
find the 5 dinars to pay me and when he gives me the money, I have then to
listen to a few stories like "When I was your age". stories about when he was
my age, he used to keep 1 dinars for 3 years . When I ask for more, he says
you have to help your mom with the housework, But he knows how much
homework we're given at school . And it's mom's job not mine, any
help?????

My pocket money

I'm a fourteen-year-old school boy. I have nothing butt problems I'm not in
good term with my parents because they don't give me enough pocket money
. Even when I ask them for some more they always say ''money doesn't grow
on trees''. I have tried to discuss our problem but we always end up fighting.
I always feel embarrassed when I go out with my friends because all of them
get much more than me. They don't understand that what I get is not enough
even when I get better results and do well at school. I'm fed up with life and I
always feel frustrated. the less money they give the more dog-heated I
become. All I want is to have more allowance.

What should I do? It would be grateful if you help me.

Family relationships

I'm lucky to be born in such happy family. My mother is a lovely person. She is
never too busy to care. She always encourages me when I need help and
comforts me when I'm in trouble. However, she sometimes drives me crazy
because she is obsessed with marks and not satisfied with my work. My father
is comprehensive he never lets me down, he often gives me helpful advice
and shows me how to behave in society. But my dad is sometimes
authoritarian especially when he deprives me of my phone. thanks to my
parents wonderful union both my sister and are now easy-going teenagers
able to think wisely and take decisions. "Family is where life begins and love
never ends"

all in all I think having a strong family makes you deal with life better.

Advantages and disadvantages

of pocket money

Pocket money has many advantages and drawbacks, generally, children learn
their attitudes towards money from home.

giving pocket money, creates the opportunity to teach them about spending
thoughtfully, saving and even the consequences of squandering it or giving
money away. It gives the children the responsibility and makes them
experienced and helps them to begin learning about money managements.
Pocket money also helps teach children about having to make choices saving
up and waiting for things they want.

however, the big amount of pocket money given to the child, may not explain
to him the true value of money. It may make him addicted to buying useless
things. Also, it can be a harm, that the child doesn't know to use, he may buy
cigarettes, or glue to sniff.

besides, the kid may be bullied from others if he carries a huge amount of
money with him.

All in all, the solution to have a perfect child, let him make some mistakes like
spending all his savings, after that , he will know the importance of the money
in our lives, and he will spend it wisely and smartly.

School memories
I'm feeling all nostalgic about my primary school, I have
a lot of memories there. It's very hard to pick just one but
the most memorable one was my first oral test .It was
the scariest thing about primary school, I was very shy
and the thought of standing in front of the whole class
talking absolutely terrified me and I also remember that I
couldn't answer the question that the teacher asked it
took me like fifteen minutes to be courageous enough to
answer. Everybody was a lot of pressure for me to
handle but hopefully the teacher was understanding and
I didn't fail the test.
Amazing that I can still remember such funny memories
.Primary school will always be my first home where I
learned how to be a real person.

How to solve our school problems

It's really awkward to hear that there are many kids going through
hard times in their school life, they feel upset and lonely when their
classmates tease them and tell them how weird they are.
But there isn't a smoke without fire, many reasons contribute to the
violence we witness in our school. the lack of paternal supervision,
we have both parents on work and the child is left To himself and
depend on other kids. Imagine children teaching others how to
behave! Besides, children become tempted by watching violence on
TV or on Net and due to all this, children become lost and couldn't
talk and react towards anything . So we must stop all this! No one
can be the victim anymore! It's the time to teach pupils how to
confront their problems, and how to be patient and courageous.
Besides, we must organize campaigns about how to solve
problems at school, and put rules and restrictions about misbehavior
for example, pupils mustn't resort to violence to protect themselves
or to have fun. Pupils should remember that everyone has the right
to live a quiet school life, and they should be safe at school.
Besides, students and school principals must respect each other
and not tolerate aggressive behavior.
all in all, if students and school principals follow my advice they'll
deal with each other away from conflicts.

Environmental problems

The earth is our responsibility. It's important to take care of where

we live. Nowadays, pollution is a major problem of our times. The
sea provides water which becomes rain and the rain gives us our
water to drink.
But we pollute the sea and the water becomes poisonous. In a few
years we are not going to have much water to drink. we have air
pollution because of the smoke made by cars and factories. It has
led to the destruction of the ozone layer and the global warming.
Noise pollution is also getting worse because of the road works and
traffic in our streets. Other environmental problems have been
caused by a too rapid use of our natural resources. Forests help our
planet to breathe. they use the carbon dioxide w produce and make
the oxygen we need. But we cut them all down and the earth can't
breathe very well.
Also, they forget that trees protect the crops and shelter the
animals. The situation is particularly serious.
The earth creatures will have unpredictable ecological
consequences. As the cause of so much damage man should try to
put matters right, if it is not already too late. But, some people are
trying to help the situation in different ways. To sum up, everyone
must assume the responsibility of keeping our planet clean and
safe. so act before it's too late.

Environment
Dangers and effects

the environment is everything that surrounds us: plants,

animals, buildings, air ... everything that affect us in anyway.
And man is a part of the environment and has done more to
upset the balance of nature during his short spam on earth than
any other creatures.
nowadays, air is getting more and more poisoned by factory
fumes and cars' smoke, Furthermore, the situation becomes
worse and worse because of man's greed and ignorance, global
warming , ozone depletion and acid rain. Domestic and
industrial waste is causing a great damage to the earth. The
situation is particularly serious in industrialized and
overpopulated regions : people are getting dirtier than before,
they throw rubbish wherever they want, they don't even use
bins or bags. Man has also damaged sea life, we can start with
oil tankers which sink in seas and oceans. They cause great
harm to the marine world. Besides, boats travel the sea bottom
and tear up the sea plants which provides oxygen and shelters.
The situation is getting out of our hands, time is running out.
And we are all responsible for changing our polluted world into
a better place that's why we must make an effort and find a
practical solution to such environmental problems.

Hi friends! I'm Josh and I'm 16 years old . the reason of this letter is that I
can't quit smoking when I wanted to. I picked up this deadly habit from my dad.
I just wanted to be like him because he really looked cool and glamorous when
he took his capturing cigarette. I know that this filthy habit damages me and
also kills me but it is difficult to rid myself of this addiction.

At the beginning, I thought that I can be famous at our school but now, I feel
miserable! I can't walk or swim like I used to . I feel exhausted of my nasty
smell. I get out of breath easily and I lost my energy which makes me older
than my age and lets girls run away. I really need your help to give up my

Homework benefits

Dear Jane,

I know that you are very busy and that you don't like homework. But I am
sorry to tell you that I completely disagree with you. In general, students are
not excited about the homework. However, I know very well that children need
time to relax and take their mind off work. But homework is not boring and is
not a waste of time, homework shows the students the important life lessons,
you have to know that there are benefits of not only doing homework because
it teaches students about time management and how to solve problem. Self-
study gives pupils and others chance to review the class material. On the other
hand it gives parents a chance to see what their child is learning in school.
Doing homework , will prepare students for the big end tests. It also provides
students with the opportunity to practice at what it takes to be successful in
school. Like they say : practice makes perfect. So I advise you not to be lazy
and do all The homework that you are given,. Make sure it will help you
understand the lessons and be a smart and bright student to make your
teachers and parents proud of you.

for the item to arrive at your door step about step
about 2 to 3 days or ever longer. All in all, internet
shopping is continuously becoming more improving

Holiday

The trip in London was so smooth and it was and it was

fabulous to travel by air and fly effortlessly over mountains and
deep valleys. first, I was busy preparing for the trip of a life time.
I remember wherever I stepped on the plane. the flight
attendant did her best to make me feel comfortable. She was
hospitable, I sat at the window which offered me a breathtaking
view of the world. You can't believe what's an extraordinary
experience to travel far above the clouds.
I guess nothing can match the plane for speed and comfort. I
arrived to London fresh and unscrambled. It's a great place to
go on holidays . It has got many wonders and a lot of tourist
attractions. I went sightseeing and enjoyed visiting many
interesting places. I was really excited, I visited the fascinating
Clock Big Ben. I also visited the famous bridge over the rivers
Thames. Buckingham Palace, the residence of the queen is
undoubtedly one of the most attractive building in London. Not
far ,there is Nelson's column in Trafalgar Square, It is tall with
a status of Lord Nelson on top of it .Going on vacation let me
recharge my batteries by disconnecting me from my regular life.
It's a very good stress removal. when I came back I felt
animated and happy to be back in my day to do routine.

Smoking : ( Complaint)

Daddy

Hi, the reason for sending this letter is that you don't want to quit this
stinking habit which is smoking. What a blessing it is to have you as a
father!

But I hate you when you smoke because that will most certainly damage
you if not kill you. It can shorten your future life by 10 years this is why
you need to fear you future life.

Why you are still lighting up? you really anger me!!!!!

smoking is a hard habit to break because it is highly addictive and is

difficult to rid yourself of this deadly addiction because the body and
mind become quickly used to nicotine . Cigarette contains a lot of
different chemical substances that are hazardous to your health because
they destroy the body's immunity system. Many diseases are caused by
tobacco : it attacks the respiratory apparatus and the nervous system.

It also affects your eyes and skin, if you look at yourself in a mirror you
will see a man getting old before his time. Besides, the amount of money
you spend or cigarettes is enough to make anyone quit. Tobacco makes
troubles as pollution horribly affects our own home and the air we
breathe.

So I want to help you with some suggestions to give up this stinging

habit :

firstly, you must get rid of your ashtrays.

secondary, you should try to avoid situations that you associate while
smoking and finally take walks and ride a bike.

Dad, keep trying because I don't want to leave you

soon.

love, from your daughterTassnim
