¡@ 1. Of the ten conditions for people to be appointed to children¡¦s guardians, what are the four conditions which you think are the most important? ¡@
¡@ A: Of the ten conditions, in my opinion, money, love, kindness, and patience are the
    most important if one want to be a qualified guardian for the children whose
    parents died or are unable to take care of them. Custodians like the natural
    parents should treat the children with their love. Educate them with patience and
    kindness so that the children will grow up with no fears. Provide them with
    sufficient material needs so that they learn to make living with their own efforts
    instead of dishonesty or stealing. All in all, children can grow up in a happy and
    wholesome family.

¡@ A: It¡¦s difficult for people to be guardians because it¡¦s not easy to teach the
    personality of the children. The guardians should be patient and have the
    experience of teaching children. It¡¦s also important to have a good environment
    and have enough budget to provide them to go to school. Third, it¡¦s so tired to
    have so much work to do with children. It¡¦s better for the guardians not to have
    their own children so that they will have enough time with the adopted children.
    It¡¦s also important that the guardians are the people whom the children are
    familiar with and they like them because this intimacy can prevent the children
    from the permanent sadness resulted from losing caring from their own parents.

¡@ A: I think wealth, health, time, and willingness are the four important conditions.
    Someone who is lack of financial resource can¡¦t give many things to children.
    Someone who is in bad health cannot take care of him or herself not to mention
    small children. Someone who is busy with his or her career will not have time to be
    with the children. They won¡¦t have time to take part in ball games, school concerts
    or other extracurricular activities with children. However, the most important is
    willingness. If the guardian reluctantly takes this job, the children will grow up
    without love.

¡@ A: First, I think the guardians must bring happiness to the children. Happiness
    depends on  whether the guardians could give the children economic security,
    comfortable shelter and love. However, material comforts is no more important
    than personality development in terms of happiness. Accompanying the children
    during their growing pains should be top priority. Teach them disciplines and
    values. Provide them good education to prepare them to enter into adulthood. The
    guardians must know these things so that they will treat the children as their own.
