(练习本上)
He can’t get along with his father.
His parents make him do things he doesn’t like.
His father forbids him from doing things he likes.
He loves his father and wants his father to understand him.
Sample answer
Dear Xiaowei,
Many teenagers have difficulty getting along with their parents. This is a common problem. However, be patient with him. You say that he does not listen to you. Is this why you do not listen to him Of course, your father will be very angry when this happens! It is only natural. You must listen to your father-he loves you and wants the best for you. You should talk with your parents in order to explain how you feel, but you should get them a chance to speak first. It could be that your father doesn’t listen to you because he doesn’t think that you are listening to him.
It is true that you need time to be by yourself. However, part of being an adult is doing things that you do not always want to do. You should make an effort to do what your parents ask. It will not hurt you. And of course, you must do your homework! Your studies are important to your future.
Both being a teenager and being a parent can be very difficult. However, don’t give up. With a little bit of patience and communication, many of these problems can be solved.
Best regards.
Dr Fang

I read your magazine every month, I myself am a teenager, almost 16, and have some problems at home that I hope you can help me 1 . The main problem is 2. I can’t get along with my father. Whenever I want to do something or suggest an idea, such as a restaurant we can go to for dinner, he doesn’t listen to me. Then, 3. I refuse to listen to him, he shouts at me angrily.
He and my mother always make me do things I don’t like, such as playing 4. piano and doing housework. Then, whenever I have some spare time and want to be alone, 5. call me selfish and distant!
My father gets annoyed if I play foreign music. Also, every time I watch a DVD he sends me to bed 6. tells me to spend more time studying. He even forbids me from chatting with my friends in the Internet café!
I love him a lot,7. I don’t understand why he is so hard on me and will not respect the things I want to do. He was once a teenager --- he should understand me better 8. he does.
Best wishes

Do you agree with mums working outside
the home
Today we had a discussion about mums who work outside the home. The opinions were divided. Sixty-five per cent of the students were for the idea of mums working outside the home. They gave these arguments. First, mums have the right to work outside the home. Second, they not only bring in more money, but also feel proud of their success in work. Third, they are good for society.
However, thirty-five per cent of the students were against mums working outside the home. They felt that mums should not work outside the home, because there would be no one around to do housework, such as cooking the meals and cleaning the house. It is too expensive to get someone else to do the work.
I think it is up to mums to decide if they want to work in or outside the home.
