Busy Parents

 Here’s a simple explanation of a parenthetical statement: Main Part of the Sentence : Imagine a sentence is like a story you are telling. Extra Information : Sometimes, you want to add a little extra information to your story. Whispering : Think of this extra information like whispering something quickly in between your story. Using Brackets (Parentheses) : We use special marks called parentheses (they look like this: ()) to show that we are adding this extra whisper. Example : "I have a dog (he is very cute) that likes to play." Skipping the Whisper : If you skip the words inside the parentheses, the story still makes sense: "I have a dog that likes to play." Not Always Important : The whisper (or parenthetical statement) is not always super important, but it gives a little more detail. Fun Detail : Think of it like adding a fun detail to your story without changing the main part. __________________________________________________ How to write one? We can use comm...
