1, Personally, as I making my own big decisions, I feel like an adult. It means I don't need to rely on my parents or follow their words any more. I am able to take the responsibility and seem to be more independence. In addition, I made decision by myself means I can manage myself well, also I possess the determination and courage to do things well even confront obstacles. When I calling to my parents, like asking for how to cook or how to wash the sweater, I feel like a child. My mom always response my question patiently and tell me take good care of myself before hanging up. As a Chinese old saying goes, “A mother always worries about her traveling child.” Whatever we do, wherever we are, in the parents’ eyes, we still be their well-beloved children.
2, I want to talk about the connection that help me positive development in adolescents. When I was a child, I really enjoyed hanging out with my good friends and staying with my parents. I seldom went outside, so I often invited my friends to come to my home. We shared foods, stories and projects together. Also, I talked with my parents very freely of my friends, my school life. I still remember the most happily thing for the child of me was we ate dinner at home together included my friends. At that time, I felt that my friends seemed like my full sister and we were so close to each other. So, with my friends and my parents love, I never felt alone and I was pushed to grow up. Because of the positive bonds with my family and friends, it gave me a warm environment to grow up step by step.
I agree with you, because I also think when I make a big decision by myself, I feel like a adult.
DeleteI don’t agree with you, because make own decisions makes me feel scare. Usually I need to ask my parents, it makes me feel like a child, even now I’m still a child.

When I am trying to do some big decision by myself, I always feel that I am an adult. It is because I cannot depend on my parents. When I was a child, my parents usually help me to make decision. In fact, they try to do some decision for me. When I try my best to do something, but the result of it is not the result I want, I usually feel that I am still a child. When I was a child, I believed that adult have to get the perfect result.
I can relate two of the Five Cs to my childhood. First, I can relate connection to my childhood, during whole time of my childhood, I always spend a lots of time with my parents and grandparents. Therefore, when I became a teenager, I also believe that relationship with family is the most important thing for me. Second C is caring, I am a person who care more about other’s mood. It is due to my childhood experience. I was a sensitive child when I was in primary school. I always cared how my friends thought I am. Therefore, I become a teenager who good at caring.
Actually, I have similar opinion with yours; both of us think making decision by ourselves can let us feel like an adult. Because we can choice what we want indeed, rather than parents want. However, I a little bit disagree that you said as you doing something on your best, but the result is not you expect, you feel yourself like a children. In my view, no matter what result happened in the end, if you can take the responsibility of it, you still act like an adult

1. Firstly, I think when I live and study in other country, I feel I like an adult. Because I didn’t miss my home and family. But when I make my big decisions, I feel like a child. Because when I make own decisions, first thing I need to do is ask my mother about this decision. For example, when I want to buy some thing or visit somewhere, I need my mother’s permit. It didn’t like make decisions by myself, it like my mother allow me to do this thing, because I don’t know which one is more suitable for me or which one are bad for me.
2. I want talk about confidence to my childhood. Because confidence give me too much good things also like positive power, and it also make me growing up. For example, when I was in middle school, I afraid to make a speech or talk with other. Until I meet a friend, he really kindly and initiative talk with me, I’m really happy to talk with he. When he make a speech, he has full of energy to do it. He usually use exaggerated movement to describe what he said. I think that is really funny and I try to make speech like him, than I earn my teacher praise. That time, I know that is confidence, think you can do it well. Until now, I have full of confidence when I make a speech or make a friend.

Core-
1.In which ways do you feel like an adult and in which do you still feel like a child?
As far as I am concerned, upon making a big decision on my own, I feel myself like an adult indeed. Through making significant choices by myself, I can proof that I have mature thinking to analyze problems as well as abilities to consider every factors related carefully. In addition, I will be willing to take the responsibility for this decision. On contrary, in my case, I am still a student without any job and income; therefore, I always need to rely on my parents to give me money to cover all of my expenses. However, I really dislike the moment that my parents give money or I ask money from them. As this upset moment, I feel I am a child without doubt, since I have no abilities to live independent.
2.How can you relate the Five C's (competence, confidence, connection, character & caring) to your childhood? Give an example from your experience in which your development was affected by one of these characteristics.
In my opinion, the most relation between Five Cs and my children is competence or confidence. In fact, as my childhood, I preferred to participate plenty of campus activities, such as sport or speech competition, debate team and so on. Those experience help me to rich my school life, also bring me a lots of sense of success on doing these activities well. Moreover, thank to these special and unique experience, I develop strong confidence on myself. I always believe that since I learned a lot from abundant of campus activities, I suppose to equip with more skills or abilities to deal with different problems.
