My family rules

Every family has its own rules and mine also has a few, which each member has to obey. First, every evening my younger sister and I aren't allowed to watch any programs on TV but the news until we have finished our homework (actually I don't like watching TV I don't even remember the last time I did). Second, since we are not old enough to drive an automobile, our parents do not permit us to use the family motorbike. Another rule is that all the family members have to do their share of the household chores. In other words, everyone in my family is responsible for doing the housework (but I am a little bit lazy and my sister too ^^). Finally, my sister and I have to talk to our parents before making an important decision and whenever problems come up, the whole family must discuss it frankly so as to find the best solution. In short, it is those rules that help my family members get along better and make us a close-knit family.

Well-written!
