This week the teacher asked us to talk something about the British Families, in the fact I had not any ideas before I came here, but now I live in the dormitory of the campus and all my neighbours are from the UK, so through talking with them I got some idea about this topic now.
First of all, the most different between Chinese families and British families is that because of the birth control policy in China, a family should have only one child, but there is no limited to the British families, most of my neighbours have at least one brother or sister, and it is said that it is normally in the British families. Secondly, the parents and the children often like the friends in the British families, the parents would always encourage the children doing something themselves and with their own ideas, and maybe the children would do the part-time job to earn their pocket money themselves since they were very young. At last, the children often live themselves after 18 years old in the Britain, that means they are adult...
I think it is just a part of the British families and i need to do more discovering if I wanted to get more information about this topic...

Hi Kevin
Well done for talking to British people in your dormitory. Having British friends is one of the best ways to improve your English!
Of course, having British friends helps you to get 'direct' information about life in Britain.
It is true, many young people have a friendly relationship with their parents. I wonder if you think this is a good thing?
