    When you're a teenager, it seems that every time you say “I want to...”,someone answers“No, you can't.” Also, no part of your life is safe from the “prying(窥视的) eyes” of your parents. 15-year-old Debbie says, “My dad always wants to know where I am, and what time I'm going to be home.” Most parents do that.

Hi Amy,

    You asked me for some information about eating out in Lichfield. Well, eating out in Lichfield is great. Lichfield has a number of really good restaurants and the best one is Steak House. It's the best because it has the thickest steaks, the freshest salads and the best French fries. You need to get there before 7:00 p.m.to get a table, because it gets crowded after that.

    If you want something cheaper, you can go to Fish House. It's better than many other restaurants, and it is really great for people who like fish. The servings are the biggest in town. And it's easier to get a table than at Steak House. But Steak House is more convenient, because it's closer to the center of the city than FishHouse. Hamburger House is popular with teenagers, but older people might like other restaurants. In fact, it has the best service in Lichfield.

Yours,

Tina
