Dear Mr. Hunt,
My problem is that I can’t get on with my family. Relations between my parents have become difficult. They fight a lot, and I really don’t like it. It’s the only communication they have. I don’t know if I should say anything to them about this.
When they argue, it’s like a big, black cloud hanging over our home. Also, my elder brother is not very nice to me. He always refuses to let me watch my favorite TV show. Instead he watches whatever he wants until late at night. I don’t think this is fair. At home I always feel lonely and nervous. Is that normal What can I do

What advice Mr. Hunt give to him
Dear Sad and Thirteen,
It’s not easy being your age, and it’s normal to have these feelings. Why don’t you talk about these feelings with your family If your parents are having problems, you should offer to help. Maybe you could do more jobs around the house
so that they have more time for proper communication.
Secondly, why don’t you sit down and communicate with your brother You should explain that you don’t mind him watching TV all the time. However, he should let you watch your favorite show. I hope things will be better for you soon.

Do you agree or disagree with Mr. Hunt’s advice Why
I agree / disagree with his advice because ...
3b
I agree with Mr. Hunt’s advice because the parents will understand their kids and will not fight anymore after proper communication. And also, the brother will be nice to him if he explains his idea to his brother.
I disagree. The parents and elder brother may get even angrier as they may think that the writer is being disrespectful. They may feel that children should not comment on the behavior of their seniors.
Can you give him some advice
1. Tell your parents to keep cool communicate with each other.
2. Ask your grandparents for help.
3. Tell your elder brother to share something with others in life.
4. Tell your feelings to him. He should be nice to you.
