Do you argue with your parents about making your bed or tidying your room? Are your parents angry because you use the Internet or hang out with friends all the time? If your answers are yes, then our new Family Solutions app can help you.

With the Family Solutions app, teenagers and parents look at family arguments from both sides and solve their problems. The app gives you tips and helps you make better choices. It also helps your parents to understand you.

How does it work? You read different kinds of problems and then choose an answer from different options (选项). The app tells you which answer is the best and why. For example, you’re getting ready to go out with friends, but your parents want you to visit your grandparents. You may choose “We always go there on the weekend. I’m going to hang out.” or “OK! We can go there today, but I’d like to hang out with my friends tomorrow.” Clearly, the first option doesn’t make you or your parents feel good but the second one makes everybody happy.

If you think the Family Solutions app is helpful, you can buy it in the App Store. It will help you live an easy life.

If you think you are too shy, just try the following things.

【小题1】 There is no need to hide (隐藏) the fact that you are shy. When they know you are a shy kid, they can know you better.

Try to smile more. When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk with. 【小题2】

【小题3】 If you find it difficult to start a talk, say something nice about people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Does’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?

【小题4】 Think more about ways to enjoy parties or games. Don’t always worry about your look or whether people like you or not. You can become relaxed and find it’s easy to talk with others.

Every time you say “Hi!” or smile at someone, say to yourself “I can make it.” Keep trying and you will become confident. 【小题5】

Having clean hands is important because people often use their hands to touch their eyes, noses and mouths. Touching these areas gives germs (细菌) the chance to go into the body.

“Washing hands is an important lifetime habit for staying healthy,” doctors say. Cleaning your hands is one of the best and also the easiest ways to protect yourself from getting sick. But it takes more than just placing your hands under running water for a few seconds.

How can you make sure you are washing your hands correctly? Here are five easy steps you can take to wash your hands.

● Wet your hands with warm water.

● Lather up with soap. Be sure to lather the backs of your hands, between your fingers, and under your nails.

● Rub your hands for at least 20 seconds－about the time it takes to sing “Happy Birthday” song twice.

● Wash your hands well under warm, running water.

● Dry your hands with a clean towel.

You should always wash your hands before meals after eating, after using the toilet, after returning home, after touching animals ...

We hope you can have the habit of hand washing.
