Does every dinner with your parents seem to turn into a battle Have your once warm and open conversations become cold and guarded Do you feel that you just cannot see eye to eye with them on anything You are not alone.Heated arguments④ and cold silences are common between teenagers and their parents.
Teenagers' physical① changes may result in such family tensions⑤. You may feel anxious that you are developing at a different rate to your friends, shooting up in height⑥ or getting left far behind.You might worry about your changing voice, weight problems or spots.When it all gets too much, your parents are often the first targets of your anger.
It can be a big headache to balance② your developing mental③ needs too.You enter a strange middle ground—no longer a small child but not quite an adult.You have both a new desire for independence and a continued need for your parents' love and support.You feel ready to be more responsible and make decisions on your own.Unfortunately, your parents do not always agree and that makes you feel unhappy.“Why can't they just let me go⑦ ” you may wonder.On the other hand, when you are struggling to control your feelings, you wish they could be more caring and patient—sometimes they forget that growing up is a rough ride⑧. It can be difficult when your parents treat you like a child but expect you to act like an adult.All of this can lead to a breakdown in your relationship.
Although sometimes it may seem impossible to get along as a family, you can take action to improve the situation.The key to keeping the peace is regular and honest communication.When you disagree with your parents, take a minute to calm down⑨ and try to understand the situation from their point of view⑩. Perhaps they have experienced something similar and do not want you to go through the same pain. After you have thought it through , explain your actions and feelings calmly, listen carefully,and address their concerns.Through this kind of healthy discussion, you will learn when to back down and when to ask your parents to relax their control...
