Decalogue+UK

1. Festivities should be focused on family relations, whichever the kind, and recover old traditions as a way to stop our routines and reflect on ourselves. 2. Giving and receiving gifts is good, but consumerism should be held back. Any simple thing given with love will provide beauty and joy. 3. The concept of authority, not authoritarianism, should be enhanced both within the family and at school. A sense of family belonging made of simple rituals such as dining together, every evening, is much healthier than our hectic lifestyle. 4. Relationships must be based on understanding and closeness. • Men and women, as human beings, should be treated equally and children respected. • School systems today are increasingly using collaborative learning and are generally far more open compared to the past. This is a positive achievement, nevertheless, students should be taught where the boundaries lie for a respectful relation with their teachers. **Clothing and Flirt ** We should be sensible when it comes to buying clothes. We should buy what is needed. The habit of recycling old clothes should be promoted or introduced again. Excessive consumption involves exploitation of raw materials and a clear harm to the environment. Relationships have come a long way in terms of gender equality and choice decision but at the same time in many cases these relationships are quite superficial and not based on love and respect, as it should be. **Work and Study ** The talent of each person should be highlighted - it is our obligation to develop it and use it for the benefit of society (as our ancestors used to say, study and hard work ennoble people!) Everyone has the right to receive compulsory education by the state and, if deserved, progress towards further training or university education should not be hindered by economic situation. Education systems should be able to change and adapt to the needs of society at all times. Everyone should have a decent job that: **Games and Leisure ** There should be games that encourage the participation and physical movement of children, which in turn develop their social behaviour and help solving the current isolation and poor physical conditions of many of them who use technological devices as their only form of playing. Traditional games should come back as they develop imagination. We must promote the activities of the past when fun did not depend on the availability of money. We must enjoy the original role of parks and playgrounds.

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Free time and vacations are a necessity and a right. They are needed to refresh the mind of people, either by enjoying their time on their own or by sharing it with others. They may be a time when families gather.

<span style="font-family: Arial,sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;">Time off and holidays break the routine and hectic life of most people in the cities, therefore, enjoying holiday has to be possible to any person, not just to those who are rich. Doing something special should be considered as a reward. After all, we only live once.
