BBC World Have Your Say："Life in China" Every day，BBC News on TV，radio and online brings you stories from across the world．But what we want to hear are the stories that matter to you． Have got a story about life in China today？If you do，please put your stories here．

I like travaling and I have traveled a lot around China．During the trip，I often find that a number of Chinese don't have good pulic manners（举止）．They always loudly on the phone and smoke everywhere．The worst is that they often break the rules in public．For example，when I travled in HongKong in January this year，I saw a kid eating noodles on the underground，which is against the rules．However，the kid's mother didn't think he did wrong．Can you believe it？Let's improve our public manners．（Mike，Shenzhen）

I am a 14-year-old boy from a poor village in Fuyang，Anhui Province．Like many other left-behind children（留守儿童 ）in China，l live with my grandparents now．my father went to work in Shanghai several years ago．Last year，my mother went there to care for him because his health is not as good as before．They tell me to listen to my grandparents and call me about twice a month to ask about my study．I really miss my parents ans I hope I can afford to go to school in Shanghai．I think every child needs parents'love and care．（Wu Peigen，Anhui Province）

Dear Editor，
I read the stories on BBC World Have Your Say today，
Iam interested in Mike's story，because I had the same experience when I traveled in Guangzhou．I can't stand bad
manners in public，either．In fact，I really get angry when people jump the queen
and smoke in non-smoking areas．I think it's wrong to break the rules in public．
In my opinion，we should know more about good manners．On the other hand，we had
better stop people around us from being rude．If we can't stop them，we can always
ask the police or someone like that for help．
Yours，
Li Ming
                                                                       Your，
                                                                       Li Ming．
