“I don't like my parents.They always tell me I should do this,and should not do that.It sometimes makes me angry,”said Zhang Hua,a middle school student in Guangzhou.Do you have the same problem?Perhaps your parents had the same problem when they were your age long ago.Why does it seem that some parents are not so friendly in their children's eyes?

One of the biggest problems is when someone becomes a parent,he/she likes worrying about things.They worry about everything about you from the time you were born.They do a lot for you,though something would make you angry,because they care about you and worry about you.They worry about your choice of friends,food you eat,your work at school,how much sleep you get,etc.All these things are part of your life.They want you to grow up healthily and happily.

So how can you make things easier on yourself?It's easier than you think.Just make sure your parents know what you're doing.Get them to know your friends.Phone them if you stay somewhere else late so that your parents don't call every hospital in the phone book looking for you.Say sorry to them when you make mistakes.Take responsibility(责任)for what you have done.Talk about your ideas with them.They may talk about theirs with you.

Most of all,try to think about why your parents do this or do that.They are still practicing being parents and need help you can give them.Some day,when you become a parent,they may be able to help you know how to get on with your children.

Later that day, when she told her husband about the lilacs, he said, I know where we can find all that you want. Get the children and come on.” So they went, driving down the country roads.

There on a small hill, they saw a lot of beautiful purple lilacs. The young woman ran quickly to enjoy the flowers. Carefully, she picked a few here and a few there. On their way home there was a smile on her face.

When they were passing a nursing home (养老院), the young woman saw an old granny sitting in a chair. She had no children with her. They stopped the car and the young woman walked to the old woman, put the flowers in her hands, and smiled at her. The old granny thanked her again and again. She smiled happily, too

When the young mother came back to her car, her children asked her, “Who is that old granny? Why did you give our flowers to her?”

“I don’t know her,” their mother said, “But it’s Mother’s Day, and she has no children. I have all of you, and I still have my mother. Just think how much those flowers meant to her.”
