Everyone worries. But how do you deal with your worries? Whether your worries are big or small, you can take these three steps to deal with your worries:

     1. Try to find out what you’re worried about

     Sometimes, you will know what you’re worried about. Other times, you might not. Try to find it out first; if you can’t, you can ask for help.

     2. Think of ways to make it better

     There is always something you can do to help you feel less worried. Sitting there worrying is no fun and it won’t solve your problem.

     Grades at school are often top worries for kids. If you’re worried about grades, ask yourself these questions:

      Why are grades important? What do grades mean to me?

     How do I get ready for class? Do I go over my notes even when there isn’t a test?

     Do I have a good place to do my homework?

      Have I tried different ways of studying?

    If your worry is about a fight you had with a friend, you might write down all the things you could do: write a note to him or her, invite him or her to a basketball game, say sorry to him or her and so on. Once you have a list of things you could do, you can choose the one that gets your friend back.

    3. Ask for help

    When you’re worried, it can help to find someone to talk to. You can ask your parents, friends, or teachers for help.

Luckily, many Chinese are now thinking about the life of the left-behind children and actions have been taken to help solve the problem.

A charity event took place in Beijing before Children’s Day. Its aim was to raise social awareness(意识) of left¬-behind children. The event was held to raise money from businesses and the public to prepare “love bags”. Inside the bags, these are things for children, including books, torches, and envelopes（信封） and stamps so that children can write to their parents.

The event was started by Chen Weihong, a television host in China. “The left-behind children don’t have enough parental love and family care. They need to be in touch with their parents. We hope our love bags will help them communicate with their parents, and make them happier, ” he said.
