　　Learning to Respect Our Parents

　　Recently a program called “Learning to Respect Our Parents” is started in our school.

　　As we all know, respecting parents is one of China’s traditional moral value. However, as most students today are “the only child” in the family, they often regard themselves as the centre of the family, not caring much for their parents. For the program, ten dos have been worked out for the students to follow. For example, we are advised to remember our parents’ birthdays and express our good wishes to them. Besides, we are supposed to tell our parents what we will do when leaving home.

　　The program has been very successful and has won a lot of praise from parents and other members of society.
