Most of us are the only child in the family! We have no little brother or big sister . Our family consists of our mom , our dad and us . We are growing up in a world greatly different from our parents’ . Yet we will be the future leader of China. We will someday have to work together and carry China into the beautiful future. So, we must learn to love each other like brothers and sisters!
It’ s hard to think about how different life would be if we had a brother or a sister . We never have to share anything at home! Of course, we might have cousins, but we don’ t have to live with them ! Our parents try to give us the best, and the best doesn’t need sharing between two or three children . Do we ever ask ourselves if we are spoiled（寵壞）?
Someone thinks that we are spoiled because we don’t know the value of money, because we don’ t know how hard our parents work but mainly because we many children don’ t know how to love ! We don’ t want others to regard us as spoiled , do we ? Well, why not start now to help our parents at home or share a game with one of our friends? In a word, We must learn to love each other !
