TEEN credit

Your buying and spending needs are growing; your income isn’t; so where do you get the extra
cash? For many, the answer lies in credit cards, but is credit card the right solution for teenagers?
Teen now asked two young people for their opinions:
I think it would be great if I could have a credit card, but I don’t dare ask my parents for one. They
think that if I had a credit card I would develop irresponsible spending habits. I suppose that
they’re right in a way. It might be more tempting to go on a shopping spree if I had a credit card. I
work part time during the school year, though, and I’m also getting a summer job, so I don’t think
it would be too difficult for me to pay off my card. Still, my parents worry that I’ll end up owing
money to the bank.

I don’t believe a teenager having a credit card is a very good idea. I’ve read in the papers about
working people who run up huge personal debts and are unable to repay them. How are teens that
have a limited income expected to handle such financial responsibility? I think credit cards would
only encourage them to spend more money than they earn. Teens should open a savings account at
a bank from which they would be able to withdraw the exact amount they need to cover their

cards that you just top up with money and use like a regular card. So, you can only use it as long as
you have money!

SUNDAY: A DAY OF REST

HSG 9 SỐ 5

4

For many Americans, Sunday is a day of rest. After a busy week of business transactions and work
routines, it is a day to pause and focus on faith and family. However, it is not a day to waste away
by doing nothing. It is a day for many to attend church and to worship with their local community.
This notion is based on the Biblical account of creation when God created the world in six days
and rested on the seventh. For this reason, one day is set aside during the week as a day of rest and
worship. On Sunday most department stores and business are closed for the day and only places of
entertainment and culture may be open to the public.
Sometimes when we read the newspapers and watch TV, we get the false impression that
American is an amoral society where people have no respect for family and religious values. This
concept is often exploited by tabloid papers and the foreign press but nothing could be further
from the truth. In spite of the apparent carefree attitude sometimes projected by the press, many
Americans, especially those living in the rural areas and the deep south, are very traditional in their
approach to life, family and religion. Sundays for them still become a time to attend their local
church and to meet with their fellow parishioners. The church service becomes for them the center
of their day's activities.
At the church service, a choir composed of members from the community sings hymns and songs
and the preacher or minister delivers a sermon based on a passage from the Gospel. In some
Christian churches there is also a communion service where a ritual remembrance of the Last
Supper is reenacted in a fellowship which concludes the liturgy. After the service, which may last
as long as an hour, the members of the congregation along with their pastor may meet in the parish
hall to enjoy coffee and cake and to socialize together. This is also the time to exchange social
greetings and ideas with one another, to become informed of the needs of the community, and to
find out about the latest happenings in the parish.
Most churches may also distribute a small bulletin containing announcements of births, deaths and
marriages within the community. There may also be additional short notices of special meetings to
be held in the parish, such as choir rehearsals, senior citizen group activities and local scouting
events. Upcoming parish events sponsored by the church also get ample notice. Such events may
include a bake sale to collect money for shut-ins, a cook-out for the underprivileged in a local
park, or a holiday trip to a local resort for members of the parish council.
Belonging to a church is important to many Americans because it helps to bring people together
with others who share the same religious faith and family values.
It also helps to create a sense of the extended family and solidifies the community spirit and a
sense of personal belonging. On the remainder of this day of rest, families are merged into closely
knit units by getting together for a dinner at which one's own extended family is invited.
If one is not a regular churchgoer the day is still a chance to rest. It is spent visiting other relatives
or friends, going to parks or attending ball games, museums or concerts. It is a time to enrich one's
life through leisure and to prepare one's mind for the workweek to follow.
