Dear Eric,
You wrote that your parents won't listen when you tell them things. I understand quite well that you are a little disappointed and upset and feel terrible. You think that your parents can't understand you.
I recommend that you talk to your parents about your feelings and your expectations. When you want to tell them something, try to do it in a respectful way. Although it is commonly seen that there is a generation gap betwwen parents and teenagers, sharing ideas among family members is very important. I think you should tell them you are old enough to do something or make a decision on your own. I am sure they will listen to you, since they are your parents and what they do is to do good to you.
All the best,
Susan Luo

Dear Xu Ting,
You wrote that you don't live with your parents becuase they work in another city. I understand quite well that you are quite lonely and feel terrible. You think that without your parents living with you makes you lonely.
I recommend that you make new friends. A good friend knows you well and provides necessary help when you are in trouble. If you have some friends, you can spend time with them after school to relieve your loneliness. At the same time I recommend you be more independent. As time goes by, your parents or friends will leave you one by one, which is very natural. If you feel lonely and have no one to talk with, try to do something you like to make you feel better. I hope my suggestion will help.
All the best,
Susan Luo
