【题目】 Nearly every parent says that we never grow up.In fact, we are maybe 16 or 17 years old.In their eyes, we are always little ones and always do wrong things.For example, when I need to stay at home alone, they always worry about me and my life without them.

Most parents always think that they have offered the best things they can make their children live in a comfortable world.They buy their children pretty clothes, cool shoes, expensive school things, and often a thousand-Yuan-cost bike.They think that they have done everything that they can for their dear children.In return, they only want their children to get good results in the examinations.

But why their children still can’t understand them? Does it mean that they still want more material (物质的) things? No.In fact, what they want is a true family.What does a true family mean? I think it means a place where we can hide ourselves from the cold world outside.From here, we can get warmth, we can get consolation (安慰), and we can get happiness.And one important thing is that we should be stronger and more confident in the outside world because we know that we have a family.

So I think that parents should sit down to talk with their children to let them know that they have a true family, so the children and their parents could understand each other more and more.Then, no children will be regarded as little ones.
