Two different childhoods


My Mom always said,"when I was a child,I... ...". And according to her words,I find a lot of differences between my childhood and my Mom's childhood.


First of all,when my Mom was a child,she was interested in music,for instance,piano,violin and guitar.But she couldn't learn to how to play them because her parents couldn't affort it.Although she really loves to play piano,and it was her dream,she couldn't make the dream come true.The difference is,when I was a child,whatever I wanted to learn,my Mom would surpport me.She didn't ask me if I like piano,but she bought it for me.In addition,the parents' minds are changed,they finally realize it's necessary to build up kids' interests and find their talents.


A second difference between the childhoods of my Mom and I is that, nowdays, we have TV and Internet.It's Information Technology time so the kids can get a lot of information and knowledge from TV and Internet.I played games with Robot Dog or with a friend who was in another country by internet.That was impossible in my Mom's childhood.I was staying at home,watching TV,and playing computer games all the time.But when she was a child,she didn't know a lot about the world.Of course she couldn't image how fun the computer games are.She just could fly kites with her little buddies.Running,laughing and watching the kites on the grass were the most interesting things she did.She hugged the natural mother,breathed the fresh air,enjoyed the golden sunshine.We are totally different.Sometimes,I admire my admire my Mom that she could play a lot of funny games that I've never heard of before.


In short,my childhood and my Mom's are different,but both of us still had a lot of fun.We both have a wonderful childhood in our life.

  2. Cyndi- Great job rewriting! I really like your comparison.

    A couple of notes:

    -Remember to capitalize your titles: (Two Different Childhoods)

    -Remember to put a space after every period, comma, etc.
