Question

“I can’t get on well with my parents. They always tell me I should do this, and should not do that. It sometimes makes me angry,” said Zhang Hua, a middle school student in Guangzhou. Do you have the same problem? Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children's eyes?

One of the things is when someone becomes a parent, he/she likes worrying about things. They worry about everything about you, from the time you were born. They worry about your choice(选择）of friends, the food you eat, your work at school, how much sleep you get etc.

They want you to grow up healthily and happily.

So how can you deal with this problem? It's easier than you think. First, make sure your parents know what you're doing. Get them to know your friends. Phone if you stay somewhere else so that your parents don’t call to know where you are. Also, take responsibility (责任）for what you did. Say sorry to them if you make mistakes.

Remember: Your Parents are still practicing being parents and need help too. Someday, when you become a parent, they may be able to help you know how to get on with your children.
