How to be a Good Son/Daughter!!

How to be a Good Son/Daughter

Title	How to be a Good Son/Daughter
Introduction	Are you a good son or daughter? Some kids aren’t sure. In order to be a good son or daughter you need to be sure to listen, help out and be thankful.
Information 1st idea	Listen.  One thing parents hate is when their kid doesn’t listen to them, and that doesn’t just mean hearing. Listening is when you look at your parents when they talk and actually process what they’re saying. Then once you’ve processed what they’ve said, actually go and do it.
Information 2nd idea	Help Out  Parents love it when they’re kids are helpful around the house. Especially when you do it without being asked. Try little things, like washing the dishes or even just bringing in the groceries and it’ll make things a lot easier for your parents. Helping around truly has its advantages.
Information 3rd idea	Be Thankful  Your parents do a lot for you. They feed you, clothe you, put a roof over your heads. That’s just a tiny portion of how much love your parents put into you. So say thank you and show it through your actions. Maybe even give your parents a massage when they come home from work, or give them breakfast in bed in the morning. Your parents want to feel loved and appreciated too.
