Good and Bad Habits
How do you spend your weekends or holidays at home? You were probably busy playing mobile games or watching your favorite movies or cartoons the whole day every weekend or during days when there are no classes. Your parents were always complaining about these bad habits. So they assigned you chores in order not to laze around at home.
You were tasked to clean your room, wash the dishes, and sweep the dried leaves in the yard. After having done all your duties at home, you were allowed to skateboard or ride a bike with your friends. You got so excited that every time you get home after school, you do your assignments right away then help your mother in the kitchen. Eventually, you learned to do your chores without being told. After which, you play with your siblings or friends.
Doing these often, you grow physically active and healthy. You and your parents were happy with what you have become.
