What is a family? A family is a group depending on each other for survival with love, care and attention. My family comprises my father, mother and I. Father is the provider of security at home. My mother is the one who binds the family together. I being the only child in my family, will have to look after my parents all the time giving them love, affection and fulfilling their expectations. When they grow old, I will have to provide all the comforts they need including medical care. There is another member in my family. It is Jeena, my pet dog who keeps us happy and dispels the loneliness in our family. I have to take care of my dog and give him love and attention.
