a friend.

trying.We're always saying to our parents,36"But have you ever stopped to consider that maybe you
don't understand them

they get offended at work and go in the restroom to cry.37Your mom may have too much work stress to
just sit down and relax at night.Your dad may get laughed at by the neighbours because of the car he drives.They
may have unfulfilled dreams they've had to sacrifice so that you can reach yours.38 They laugh,they
cry,they get their feelings hurt,and they don't always get their act together,just like me and you.
