The text is a conversation between Sarah and
John. They discuss which is the best method to
deal with naughty kids. Sarah has many brilliant
ways to make her children oblige to what she
says through the clip. Not by putting pressure,
bad words or disciplining children in public, which
does not make her children shy or diploma which
other people and their friends. Depending on
situations, Sarah can deal with when her children
are naughty and tantrums. Even if her children cry
and scream, she does not yell or discipline them
in public, which is most parents make that mistake
a lot nowadays.

Section 3: The text is about what parents and adults

● What do you think about this
clip? Why?
● How is this story connected to
you or everyday life in your
home country?

should do when meeting naughty kids. Firstly,
they should not coddle whatever children want
unless they oblige to what you say, for example,
stop crying and having toys or snacks. The more
you pamper whatever a child wants, the more
naughty they will be in the future. Furthermore, it
would be best not to discipline or give bad words
to children when they are playful, making them
shy in front of many people. Solving problems
related to naughty kids, adults should play it by

ear. Depending on
situations, they will have different methods to deal
with. For instance, when children start being
playful in some places, that pack of people
parents should give them whatever they want,
wait till coming home and advise them not to do
that in the future. The clip is expedient knowledge
to be a good parent, help naughty kids be better
without putting much pressure, bad words, or
making them shy in public. That is why I love this
clip too much.
