Answer 1

Answer:

Every thing u should do

Answer 2

Answer:

Here are some things you can do when money is short:  

• Think about things you’ve been spending money on that you can do without – movies, magazines, music, gas, or sodas.
• Think about ways to earn money – mowing lawns, baby-sitting, shoveling snow,  or delivering papers.
• Think about ways to stretch the money your family does have – sew or mend clothing, garden, baby-sit for younger brothers and sisters, prepare meals.

Here are some ways you can help your family save on bills. Even little things help:

• Turn off the lights, television, stereo, and curling iron when not in use.
• Make fewer phone calls and keep them short.
• Take shorter showers to cut down on the hot water used.
• Dry clothes on clothes lines rather than in a dryer when possible.
• Take clothes out of the dryer immediately to cut down on ironing.
• Hang your clothes up after wearing so they won’t need to be washed as often and will last longer.
• Don’t stand with the refrigerator door open while deciding what to eat.
• Drink water, milk and juices, which are healthier and can be less expensive than soda.
• Hang up the towel after your shower/bath so it can dry and be used again.
• Turn off water while brushing your teeth, turn on (small stream) for rinsing.
• Use less shampoo – only enough to clean the hair (too much lather is wasteful)
• Buy generic brands of personal care products.
• Don’t waste school supplies – use both sides of paper.
• Don’t be wasteful with food.
• Ride your bike or walk to places whenever possible.
• Give gifts to friends and family of your time and energy rather than money.  

Here are some things you can do to help relieve stress and tension at home:

• Think about the things you do that make other people in your family angry. Find ways to avoid doing those things.
• Do extra chores; help out without being asked.
• Clean up after yourself.
• Avoid picking fights.
• Spend time caring for younger brothers/sisters.
• Share your possessions and school supplies with other family members. Learn to be generous with your time also.
• Keep a good sense of humor.
• Be enthusiastic about trying new foods.
• If a task needs to be done and you can do it, do it; it will be appreciated.
• Treat your family with kindness. Be courteous using “please and thank you” generously.
• Accept your parents decisions in a positive manner.
• No matter what your age, there are things you can do to help at home during tough times.
