1．In the city I live in，we have a small local national park full of trees.I like that place very much，although I do wish it was bigger.
One day，I was walking around in the park along a path （小路） when I saw a beautiful squirrel （松鼠） lying in the middle of the path.I stopped and found that there was something wrong with one of its legs.
Just at that time，a man with two little kids was behind me.They were my neighbors.They were going up the same path.I said hello to jye.aim.The dad asked me， "Why are you standing still here？" I said，"Look!Here is a beautiful squirrel，but...." Noticing the squirrel，one of the kids shouted， "Quickly dad，catch it for me.I want to put it in my birdcage." His brother nodded，asking their dad to catch the squirrel.
Then I stopped them."Please wait.Do you really want to catch it and put it into the birdcage？" My neighbor said， "Yes.I will catch it and take it home." I said angrily， "Animals are our friends and this is the last place in our city that the squirrel can live in.We must protect them.If we are kind to this tiny animal then we can start to be kind to bigger ones."

Get support.When you need help，reach out to the people who care about you.Talk to a trusted adult，such as a parent or other relatives. （2）They might have had similar problems，such as dealing with a test，or the death of a beloved pet.
Don't take it out on yourself.Sometimes when kids are stressed and upset they take it out on themselves.Oh，dear，that's not a good idea.
