My parents are both teachers so you'd imagine i'd have no trouble at all academically.When i was little it was great because we had a really great relationship.But nowadays all we seem to do is argue and that causes a lot of conflicts between us,so i don't really feel i can go to them for help.My friends aren't much help either as they've all got the same problem.Thank goodness i get on really well with my tutor at university.She's very approachable and ,if i'm struggling with an assignment i find her advice really helps me.

Study links与相连接 early friendships with high-quality sibling relationships

Children who experience a rewarding有益的 friendship before the birth of sibling are likely to have better relationship with that brother or sister that endures持续 throughout their childhood, said LK in a university of Illinois study published in December's Journal of Family Psychology.

When early friendships are successful,young children get the chance to master sophisticated social and emotional skills,even more than they do with a parents.When parents relate to a child,they do a lot of the work,figuring out what the child needs and then accommodating those needs, says LK However,this is not usually the case when two children are interacting.

The research showed that the benefits of early friends are long-lasting. Children who had a positive relationship with a best friend before the birth of a sibling ultimately had a good relationship with their sibling that lasted throughout adolescence.And children who as preschoolers were able to coordinate play with a friend,manage conflicts and keep an interaction positive in tone一致 were most likely as teenagers to avoid the negative sibling interaction that can sometimes launch children on a path of anti-social behavior, she added from birth,parents can nurture and help develop these social competencies by making an eye contact with their babies, offering toys and playing with them.

Tell me about your family.

Who are you most similar to in your family?

What do you think it takes to be a good parents?

Well,My immediate family直系家庭成员 is relatively small,just my parents,my two brothers and me.But both of my parents come from very large families so my extended family is very large-I have 25 cousins.Our family gathering are pretty chaotic混乱的,but fun.We're a very close-knit family紧密的。Even though we don't live together any more,the family ties are still very strong.When we were little there wasn't very much sibling rivalry同胞争宠between us. I think it's because we had a very stable upbringing养育.Both of my parents played a very active role in our school life,and our home life,and they taught us to resolve our conflicts in a very fair公平的way.I consider myself very lucky.

Well,you can see a very clear family resemblance between my brothers and me,but everyone tells me that the physical resemblance between me and my maternal grandmother is very striking.Sadly,i never got to meet here because she died before i was born.but i've seen photographs of her at my age and we are quite alike.Other than that此外，i think i have my father's temperature性格 we're both very stubborn,but thankfully,i also inherited his maths brain.

I don't think anyone can be a good parent,not everyone has the right instincts. i think i have a very strong maternal instinct,because i love taking care of small child so i hope to become a mother one day. i think it takes a great deal of patience and love.
