Talking about family Well, what could I really say about my family? I guess mine is not worse and not much better than the average one. Of course, I have a father and a mother and I also have a younger brother. Besides, my niece lives with me at the same house. She is 11 and she is a student. I´ll start with my father because I have less contact with him. Even though he is already retired, he works very much and he is usually out of house talking with his friends and neighbours. He likes to have almost everything running very smoothly at home. No arguments between us. The television set and the stereo not too much loud, and we must to obey when he says something, which is not too often. You might call him as a benevolent dictator: 'doas I say and everything will be okay'. It´s a fact. My Dad, who has a tendence to put on weight, needs a big, hearthy breakfast all mornings. So my Mom is always trying to get him to cut down on his food. Now my mother is quite different. I love her too much, but sometimes she can be exasperating. She has just to run everybody´s life down to the smallest details. She starts to mutter and fuss as soon as she gets up. Since I don´t even like to talk when I first get up I try to do everything to Mom is liking so that there won´t be any arguments. Currently, my brother doesn´t live in my city. When he is at home, he is often slow in the bathdroom and sometimes he doesn´t want to eat anything. So, this is a subject of discussion almost every day. Anyone understand his attitude. Actually, my brother and I don´t get along so well. We have to share a room because we can´t afford a more bigger house. This is the source of problems with my brother. I wish he was more cooperative. I have a very close friend of me. His name is Fernando and his family has six members: his mother, his father, his brother and his two sisters. I suppose he is rich but I don´t know if he does. Like my situation, he doesn´t also get along fine with his brother. Whenever Fernando wants to study, his brother says he need to study or he says he wants to read a book. Fernando´s Dad is a quiet man and he likes to stay at home. He works as a civil engineer in a company quite nearby his house. Fernando´s Mom is a very experencied nurse. She takes care of tons of pacients at a hospital in downtown. She is also the one who goes to shopping when the family needs to get something. I think my family is not the best of the world, but I like it too much because we love each other.
