This teenager can- and his mum's very happy with him.
He goes to school, does his homework, meets his friends and enjoys playing sports. But between 5:30 and 6:30 from Monday to Friday, Tom does something different. He cooks dinner for all the family: his mum, dad, younger brother Joe and elder sister Emma.
“ Maths and English are important， of course， but they need other skills too to help themselves in today's world. First I taught Tom how to cook easy meals like pizza, eggs and chips. Yesterday he made vegetable soup. It was good! We all liked it very much," Tom's mum says.
“I love cooking and I think I'm really good at it. I don't know why. It isn't difficult and it's great fun!” Tom says.
In the past, Tom didn't help out at home and his mum wasn't pleased with him.
