When we’re little, we know nothing about the rights and responsibilities of adulthood.  36  .Thus,   if we like a certain toy or if we want to eat a certain type of chocolate, we think that our parents will have to buy that for us. We don’t care that they possibly have not enough money for that. If they don’t carry out our wish, we’ll begin to cry.  37  . Whenever we begin to cry, we’ll get what we want.

Still,little by little, we realize that our parents can’t offer us all that we wantfor certain reasons. We then also understand that parents have their rights.They have the right to scold us when we do something wrong or when they findout that we have lied to them.   38  .They choose our clothes, the food we eat, the school we’ll study at, the hourswhen we should go out to play and the time we have to return home.

  39  .They are the ones to be blamed later if we don’treceive proper education. That’s why when we beat a classmate at thekindergarten, parentsare the ones to apologize for our deeds in front of the teacher and theclassmate’s parents. And when we get ill, they are responsible for not takinggood care of us and for dressing us inadequately.

Themoment we become teenagers, we notice that we should be responsible for ourbehaviors in society. Now we have the right to be independent.   40  . It is supposed that we are mature enoughto solve our problems and to make people around trust us.
