3、 until they buy them. But parents also need to take the blame(責(zé)備) for spending so much money. They want their children to have the best things.

And if you dont have much, you can always borrow some. But this hasnt always been the case. When our grandparents wer

6、e young, there was very little money and everyone had to save hard for things they bought. They only bought things they needed, not things they just wanted.

10、hen we spend itB When you set a foot outside of your door to drop litter, go to a social event or go for a walk, thoughts like I hope I dont see anyone I know or please dont talk to me may run through your mind. Ive also said such things to myself. Sometimes the last thing you want to do is to talk

11、with someone, especially someone new. Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people? Do we think meeting new people is a waste of time? Or are we just lazy, thinking that meeting someone new really is a trouble? Communication is the key to life. We have been told that many times. Take the past genera
