Both families wanted to have a peaceful and calm life.

   From my point of view , the biggest change for Jake`s and Jo`s kids is changed way of thinking. And what is more kids have changed priorities and values. Now, due to their parents, children unconsciously understand that they can get money anywhere, but not true feelings .On this theme I can write endlessly. It is a serious and philosophic theme. It is answer on why most rich people cry.

   I don`t know real stories about lifestyle changes like that. But I know my family`s story. When my mom was pregnant with me she with my father and grandmother leaved a village. And they don`t regret. I And I know a lot of families like mine. I think it is so because not all our villages and countryside are as good as in England.

But what we had were people to talk to in person and not digitally.

We shared emotions, not emojis. That is what this saying means.

5) Would you enjoy the company of someone who does nothing but work and who finds no time for play or leasure

If “Jack,” meaning anyone, always works and never plays, Jack will be dull, uninteresting, and perhaps unpleasant to be with

 мешай дело с бездельем, проживешь век с весельем

6)The more people have the more they want . That means that in people`s nature we have something that we can not fulfill. The more money we have, so more money we spend, it is always not enough

Чем больше люди имеют, тем больше люди хотят.

I agree with all sayings
