Topic > My role in my family - 1005

In the whole family, I am a good example for my family. One of the reasons is that I am the eldest grandson, which means my grandparents and another old relative will have more expectations of me due to Chinese tradition. In China, older people like boys more than girls. Especially in some rural areas, parents do not stop giving birth to a child until they have a boy. Although it is a misconception, it is difficult to change the opinion of the elderly. Another reason is that I have two young male cousins ​​who are as close to me as my brother. When he was born on the first day, I went to visit him. When I saw him, I felt a sense of duty for the first time because before he was born, I was the youngest child in the whole family. Every week my family and my cousin's family meet to have dinner or just play at home. I helped my aunt teach him to crawl, walk, talk and so on. It should be a great experience to imagine having done the same thing as him when I was young and at the same time I taught him. I told myself that it was time to learn the importance of duty and be a good example for my little cousin. I started studying well and taking up more hobbies besides playing video games. For example, I started learning to play basketball with my cousin in the same organization, but I was in a higher class than him. Now my cousin's family moved from China to America because of my uncle's job and I am also studying in America. I will visit them when I was on vacation. It is good for a person to observe a child growing up, so that he can better understand his parents' hard work and do better in daily life.
