Have you ever asked yourself why children go to school? You will probably say they go to learn languages，physics， history， chemistry and all subjects. That is quite ， but why do they learn these things?
We send our children to school to them for their future work and life. Nearly everything they study at school has some practical use in their life， but is that the reason they go to school?
There is in education than just learning facts. We go to school how to learn， so that when we have left school we can go on learning. If a man really knows ， he will always be successful， because whenever he has to do something new， he will quickly teach himself how to do it in the best way. The uneducated person， on the other hand， is unable to do it， or does it badly， so the purpose of school is not just languages， physics， history， chemistry， but to teach pupils the to learn.

When I had something difficult to do， I used to ask my mother for help. But she always said， “Do it yourself， dear.” I was not at all. I thought she was the mother in the world!
For example， one day， I decided to some friends to my home. My bedroom was not in a mess. Books were everywhere. And I didn’t make the bed. I asked my to help me clean it， she still said， “Do it yourself， girl.”
Because of my “lazy mother”， I have to my clothes and clean my room. I have to help my parents ， I even have to go to the dentist by myself. It isreally hard for me to do everything well， but I have learned .
As time goes by， I understand my mother. She makes me clever and hard-working. a great mother! A mother is better than one hundred teachers! Don’t you think so?
