SAMPLE ANSWER
The family plays a vital role in every person’s life. I know many families, some are my relatives, and some live in our neighbourhood, and mostly they are polite and intelligent. Here I would like to talk about a family that comes to our society four months ago. I enjoy spending time with them. They belong to Bengali culture. There are six members in the family, Mr. Sengupta, his wife, his parents and two children. Mr. Sengupta works in the railway department. They lived in Agra before the shift here.
Families belong to different religions live in our society, and there is one rule of our society to organize a dinner party whenever a new family comes into our society. So I meet them the first time at the dinner party; they are very decent people; their children are brilliant and well mannered. The Father of Mr. Gupta, retired from Army, and his mother is retired from a government bank. I feel very happy when I came to know that Mrs. Sengupta is an English teacher. I requested her to teach English because I am preparing for the IELTS exam. She gets ready to teach me.
Now I go to their home every evening from 5 to 7 pm for speaking and writing. She is a very polite lady and never gets irritated if I asked some questions again and again. I noticed one thing in their house and that everything is well placed and they do not force their children to do something; in fact, they support their children’s decision, which I like.
PART – 3 FOLLOW UPS
Who is usually the leader in an Indian family?
India is a patriarchal society, and, in most families, the eldest male member is the leader. If it’s a joint family, its generally the grandfather and in nuclear families, it’s the father.
How do grandparents take care of their children?
I think today grandparents fill the void left behind by working parents. Both the parents work today and as such, are not able to devote enough time to the children. So, grandparents raise children just like parents. They also teach them about moral values. In some ways, they are also responsible for spoiling children as they give in to their demands much more easily than parents too.
What’s the most important quality of a good parent?
I think the best quality of a good parent is flexibility. Flexible parents tend to be open-minded and easy-going. They resolve disagreements smoothly. Kids are naturally defiant, and thus, inflexible parents increase defiance and rebelliousness in their kids, and this always escalates conflicts.
