Tips for Teaching Kids Responsibility

Your best friend has a teenager who helps with housework without being asked. Your cousin has a one-year-old child that puts her bottle in the sink when she finishes the milk, but no reminders are needed. 1. Raising helpful, good kids who know how to make a sandwich is not a fantasy! The following tips can give you a better chance of raising a responsible child who then grows into a responsible adult.

2. You can’t suddenly spring responsibility on a teenager and expect he will know how to follow through. He needs time to practice and totally understand what responsibility means.

Let kids help you. Don t complain when it's time to do housework. Smile and invite your son to help. 3. He will take these good feelings and learn to take ownership of his home and feel pride in keeping it up.

4. Make responsibilities age appropriate. You can show how to complete small tasks in daily life and perform them at a child’s skill level. For example, if your kid wants a snack, show him where the apples are and how to wash one off.

Teach your child consequences. Learning to take care of his things also helps a child develop a sense of responsibility for his actions. Get your son to clean up after an art project, and inform him that he won^ be able to play with his crayons the next day if he leaves a messy table. 5. The more you carry out the rules, the more likely he is to clean up without being asked.

A. Have a sense of responsibility.

B. Why do they make a sandwich for kids?

C. Show kids how to perform responsibility.

D. Where do these wonderful children come from?

E. Start to teach responsibility to kids early.

F. When your child is invited to participate, he feels valued.

G. Then take away his supplies if he does not take his responsibility.

Many schools across the US hold graduation ceremonies this time of year. In some schools, even 5 and 6-year-olds observe their graduation from kindergarten. And so can older people, much older. Meet 70-year-old Jerry Reid, who just graduated from the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. He earned a bachelor’s degree.

Mr. Reid might not look like the average college student; his hair is definitely grayer. But still Jerry Reid’s age is easy to forget, other UVA students know him as one of their own.

Mr. Reid sat into the “Hoo Crew,” a group that cheers loudly for the school at sports events. He also joined a men's group on campus. He sang drinking songs along with many other students. Mr. Reid’s school friends say they can talk to him just about anything.

About a half century ago, in his 20s, Mr. Reid was not in school. Instead, he was racing cars and chasing girls. But he says his friend Bill invited him to UVA parties.

“Bill told me what a terrible life I had unless I came up here and went to school with him,” said Reid.

That was in 1963. Jerry Reid says it took him 48 years to take that advice. In 2011, he entered college. UVA Professor Luke Wright says Mr. Reid influences students. He opened the minds of the young adults. The teacher says Mr. Reid showed them that life does not end at 40. Instead, the 70-year-old college graduate believes that getting older can be the beginning of a dream.

“Remember that path that you left waits for you. It’s there. It’s yours. All you must do is to get out of your own way and get back to it. And, that's exactly what I did,” said Reid.

Mr. Reid says that he and his wife Susan now would take some time off to enjoy his college degree. Then, he’ll return to UVA to begin studying for his graduate degree.

1.Which of the following is true of Mr. Reid?

A. He was laughed at by other students.

B. He was interested in study in his youth.

C. He enlarged the views of young people.

7.You could feel sorry for Alberto Torres,who is blind.The last thing he remembers seeing was his daughter being born 13 years ago.Then the world went blank; he can only imagine what his only child looks like now,as a teenaged honor student.Bad luck is no stranger to this warm and thoughtful 37-year-old man.His mother died of cancer when he was 4,and his father,who was often ill,had to give him up to the care of the state when he was 11.He later worked for 19years in a workshop making household goods,deathly boring work.Earlier this month,Alberto Torres's wife,who had just been laid off from her job,had to have a breast removed due to cancer and now faces a year of radiation treatments.Things seemed always to go from almost incredibly bad to worse.Even Mr.Torres's good luck has a dark side:Five years ago,his lovely guide dog pulled him out of the path of a truck.Mr.Torres was not hurt.The dog was killed.
But Mr.Torres does not feel sorry for himself."These are just little bumps you have to go over in your life,"he said.At 5a.m.on a recent morning,we caught up with Mr.Torres at a subway stop in Brooklyn,New York,near where he lives in a third-floor apartment (with no elevator).He had been up since 3a.m.,feeding his new dog,making coffee,getting ready."When you're blind,it takes a little longer to do things,"he said.
Mr.Torres was beginning his two-hour trip to his job developing film in the X-ray department of the emergency room of the Bronx hospital.He would take the G train to Queens Plaza station to the R train,heading towards Manhattan.He would then ride the R train to 59th Street where he would walk upstairs to switch to the Number 6train.At one point along the journey,he might chat with a stranger.At another,someone would pat his dog,calling him by name.People offered assistance,even seats.At 125th Street,Mr.Torres would transfer to the Number 4train by crossing the platform.At 149th Street,he would go down to the Number 2.He would take that to East 180th Street where he nearly always has a long wait for his final train,to Pelham Parkway.Then he and his dog would walk 20minutes to the hospital.
It was a hard job to come by.Before he got the job,Mr.Torres was determined to escape the workshop run by an organization dedicated to help people who can't see.He wanted a job developing X-ray film,something that everyone must do in the dark.He had to handle the long trip,as well as the work."Our philosophy here is that blind people can do just about anything except drive buses,"it was the thinking about disabled people at the Bronx hospital."We find what a person can do rather than what he can't do,"said the hospital's director.
One day a while ago marked the first anniversary of Mr.Torres's hiring.He developed 150or so X-rays,his usual output,to celebrate.Mr.Torres works by himself in a small,dark room that smells of chemicals.He cannot wear gloves,because he needs to feel.It is hard work,related to emergency of lives.His immediate supervisor says he trusts him 100%.Mr.Torres makes $20,000a year.But his motivation goes beyond money."If I start feeling like a victim,that makes me bitter.And why be bitter?That makes you go into a hole and stay there."he said."I'm not doing anything out of the ordinary,"insisted Mr.Torres as he quickly completed the task.
