      Most American families are smaller than the families in other countries. Most American families have one or two parents and one or two children

each.

      Children in the US will leave their parents’ home when they grow up.

They usually live far from their parents because they want to find good jobs. They often write to their parents or telephone them. And they often go to visit their parents on holiday.

      Parents usually let their children choose their own jobs. Americans think

it important for young people to decide on their lives by themselves.

families, children are paid for some housework so that they can learn how to make money for their own use.
