And you can't express yourself well if you are angry. 2
3 Perhaps you and your parents disagree on something. You can keep your disagreement and try your best to accept each other's. Michael's mother didn't agree with him about buying a motorcycle. They argued over it. But they finally came to a compromise. Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days.
Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something. In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect for them. 4
