Introdution of indispensable children

     What do you think about what teens were doing today? I believe that most of them were studying at school. Some of them might stay at home because of sickness. Some of them might drop the school in order to travel with their parents. However, as immigration as the United States, there are many newcomers who come to depend on their children because of language problems. Those children are obliged to support their parents in many ways. Such practices might give those children several negative effects.

edited " indirect speech"

One day, I was having a dinner with my friend in a popular restaurant. As we had no idea about the food, we looked around to see others. I heard from a couple who sat next to us that they liked the wine. Therefore, we ordered two cups of red wine too.

   When our wines were delivered to us, I had dropped my wine scarcely. The man yelled upsettingly that why there was an insect in his dish. He asked the waiter who stood against the wall at our right hand side to go over there to explain what's going on.

    The man complained impolitely about the food to the waiter. I saw the waiter trying to solve the problem by offering him another dish for him. But whatever the waiter had said, the man couldn't listen. The man shouted crazily to the waiter to give him an excuse. Meanwhile, the lady who might his girlfriend said to him that please controlled himself and it’s not a big deal just asked the waiter to cook another dish for him.

     Even thought I agreed with her, I couldn't say anything. The man roared frenzied that how could it happens in his favorite restaurant and he had never had such a terrible situation in his live.

     Finally, the waiter said to him that he couldn't tolerate his insulting talking. He threw his apron away to show his resentment. The lady told the man she had to leave since she shamed on him. When they all gone, I realized that my wine was disappeared too. I had paid 15 dollars for nothing but a free horrible live show

1. One day, I was having a great time with my friend in the restaurant.
My friend asked, “How is wine?”  I replied gladly, “It is very smooth. I like it.”

2. Suddenly, he looked soup carefully and found out something in the bowl.
“Don’t you think it is an insect?” he said angrily.
After I had seen that, I answered, “Oh, something is in the soup, but I'm not sure what it is exactly.”

3. He was very annoyed, so he called waiter, “Hey! Excuse me!  Waiter! Come here and look at this!”  The waiter was confused and didn’t know what’s happen.

4. “How can it happen in this popular restaurant? I visit often this famous restaurant, but I have never seen such a terrible situation,” He said offended. The waiter tried to explain, “I’m so sorry. Can you give me some time to talk with my manager? Would you like to have another soup instead of it? This will be free for our mistake.”   However, my friend couldn’t control himself and began to shout abuse. “Please, calm down. Give him some time to solve it.” I tried to stop him shouting because I felt regretful for him.

5. After all, the waiter couldn’t stand continuous insult anymore and ran out of the restaurant. However, my friend didn’t stop shouting and all of customers stared at us.

6. I was so ashamed of his ungentlemanly behavior that I left my seat even though I didn’t eat anything except wine.
