　　Styles of Living

　　Some people enjoy living together with their parents after they have grown up. They hold the opinion because , living with parents , they can take better care of their parents and vice¹ versa. Meanwhile , they can turn to their parents for help if they get into trouble or have some difficulties². To them, life in a big family seems to be more enjoyable than that in a small family.

　　Others, however , prefer to live separately³. They cherish⁴ the idea to be independent of their parents, seek more freedom and wish to have a place of their own, in which they can do what they like. Bedsides , they don’t want to be overprotected by their parents but long for chance to face the society by themselves.

　　As to me , I like an independent life style in spite⁵ of the fact I love my parents. Different generations have different life styles and values. What one generations likes may not be another generation’s fondness. Living separately , each generation can enjoy different value. In addition , by leading an independent life , I can train my character and develop my own ability to deal with things encountered⁶ in my life.
