Discuss with your
partner the topic “Family”
Large family
Advantages.
You have a lot of people, your sisters and brothers, you are not alone, they
are your relatives that means, and they can only help you.
Disadvantages.
If it is not a big country house or manor, you have to share the room with you
sisters or brothers, children always disturb each other, they always have
quarrel.
Children
have to share parents' attention.
If the
family is not very, children have to wear hand-me-down cloth, have no
possibility to go abroad, don't have many things, I mean, parents are not able
to buy anything a child wants.
To my
mind, theme must be a big manor to live comfortable in a big family. A big
house, where everyone can have his own room, that means his own surface. It is
very important. It is not convenient, when someone else lives in the same room
with you, because you are constantly disturbing each other, you have no rest
and silence, you haven't got any your personal surface. I think, it is good to
have many relatives, but when they don't live with you.
Small family
Advantages
You have all your parents' attention.
You can wear new clothes and go abroad.
Parents are able to buy you many things.
No one disturb you, you have your personal surface.
You are not alone, because still you can have a lot of cousins and friends.
When not cousins, then friends.
Disadvantages
None. Maybe that you have to care about your parents alone, when you are a
grown up.
