Suggested writing:
In my opinion I think it is important to have a day to
celebrate for our parents.
It will be a day for us to express our feelings, memories and
love for our parents. Family members can have a chance to
get together and help one another. I think the first Sunday in
August is suitable for everyone because Sunday is a day off,
everyone is free from work and study. It is a good idea to
have a lunch or dinner with all family members. Our parents
should be given flowers, greeting cards and special gifts.
They should be severed the food they like best.
I believe that the idea will be supported and the day will be
celebrated nationwide because everybody loves their parents
and wants their parents to be happy
