Hello
I don't know whether three stenences are right?
Can you help me check them?
Thank you very much.
Children lived with their parents until they graduated from school and found a job.
So seriously did one of my friends take his job that he didn’t know his mother came down with SARS until he watched news.
What is the quality of a son or a daughter is obedience.

The/Their/Nepalese children lived with their parents until they graduated from school and found a job. (Some kind of determiner or limiting adjective is necessary to make the sentence natural.)

MrM. Do I need to put a determiner if I rewritten the sentence:
Children used to live with their parents until they graduated from school.
Because I'm talking about children in general. Also, I have the same feeling about the original, I think the determiner could be left out, am I right?

'Children used to live with their parents until they graduated from school.'
'Children lived with their parents until they graduated from school and found a job.'
Both of these are grammatically good. The reason I suggested som
