Second, we should spend more time talking with our parents. When we feel worried or unhappy, we can share our feelings with them. They will give us good advice. Finally, we should care about our parents. They work hard every day, so we can chat with them, take a walk in the park, or watch a movie together. These small things can make them happy.
