improve the situation
| love everyone in my family, and they are very nice to
me However, there’s something that troubles me a
lot and makes me feel a kind of disadvantaged The point is that there's no sense of family in our house
We never fight with each other, and there are no family
rows We try not to get on each other's nerves, but we
never do anything together Everyone is preoccupied
with their own business Mum normally does some
cooking, looks through some papers or discusses something with her colleagues on the phone Dad
either watches TY or upgrades his car My brother, who is eight, draws something or plays computer games
As for me, | just feel bored and lonely To conceal it |
pretend to be very busy with my homework, or go out even when | don’t feel like doing it at all
Is it the same in other families? If you happen
to have some ideas on how to help us, I'd really
appreciate it What could we do together to feel that we are together Love, Jess 30 Useful language
Doing something together is crucial to family happiness
From my personal experience
T can say that
I can honestly say It’s easier / better to
It can be interesting to different
generations
To involve everyone in + -ing I suppose everyone will enjoy
Why don't you arrange ?
You can try + -ing
It will give you a feeling
If it doesn’t work
Leave it as it is
