To be a child: Easy or not?
Host: Welcome to our show! Welcome the three children! Parents always say it's great to be a child. But, what do the children think?
Peter: I had one thing to say: IT'S NOT EASY TO BE A CHILD. Being a child looks like fun, but sometimes it's not. Yesterday I was playing balls outside with my friend, but my mother said, "Peter, it's six o'clock. It's time to come back home. It's getting late." When you're a parent, no one can tell you what to do or when to do it.
Jack: "Hurry up!" "Don't eat too much ice cream." "Don't play computer game." "Keep your room clean." "You should go to bed before nine o'clock." Oh, dear! These nagging words ring in my ears every day.
Lisa: As(作为) a child, I like to play, but I have no time to play or to do the things I really love. After school or on the weekend, more homework are waiting for me. It's all from my parents. I try to get good grades(成绩) but my parents think I should get better grades.
Host: Both parents and children have different ideas. Next week, we are going to talk about: To be a parent, easy or not?
