Teens will finally grow up some day, leaving their parents and facing the difficulties in life alone, so they should learn basic life skills and get into good working habits.
The government(政府) is trying to tell people about the importance of hardworking spirit education. But this was overlooked these years. Many teens do not value(看重) the importance of working hard. There is a teenage girl named Nancy. She never helps out around the house. Once her mother was on vacation for a week, leaving her alone at home. When her mother came home from vacation, she could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.
Schools play an important role in teaching students about the value of working hard. Primary and middle schools should provide students with hardworking spirit courses every week. To our joy, some schools have provided each class with a piece of field to plant their favorite vegetables.
For example, No. 38 Middle School in Hefei, sets up a 500-square-meter farm on the top of their teaching building. Each class grows and picks vegetables there.
Parents should also tell their children to learn how to do chores at home. Teens should get one or two life skills every year. These skills can include cooking, washing their own clothes and tidying their rooms. The basic skills may help teens to solve the problems they will meet in the future.
