STEP 1
Talk about what's important when raising children.
아이를 키울 때 중요한 사항들에 대해 이야기해 주세요.
[Response]
Raising kids is a heavy responsibility. For a few years after a baby is born, parents really have to give their all. They keep track of whether a child is eating and sleeping well. As the child grows, parents have to provide support so that the child can build character. When kids start to attend school, education weighs on the mind of parents. Koreans place an emphasis on kids' education. Whatever they do, getting accepted to a good school is thought to be the key to a better life.
[해석]
아이를 키우는 것은 막중한 책임이다. 특히 아이가 태어나고 몇 년 동안은 정말 많은 정성을 쏟아야 한다. 아이가 잘 먹고, 잘 자는지 돌봐 줘야 한다. 아이가 자라면서는 인성이 잘 발달할 수 있게 도와줘야 한다. 아이들이 학교에 들어갈 나이가 되면, 부모에게는 아이들 교육이 큰 고민거리다. 한국 사람들은 자녀 교육을 중요하게 여긴다. 어떤 일을 하든 좋은 학교에 진학하는 것은 더 나은 삶으로 가는 열쇠로 여겨진다.

[Response]
I have one son and one daughter. They were really adorable and lovable when they were babies. My daughter fell ill when she was young. It pained me to take her to the hospital so often. I always felt guilty that she wasn't healthier. Now, she is all grown up and healthy. She is married and has a daughter of her own. My son lost his way a lot during adolescence. I reasoned with him and scolded him, but things didn't go as I had thought. But now, he's learning a trade to start his own business. I am filled with gratitude that they are so healthy.
