Question

【题目】

Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But during the summer vacation in 2017. Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. "The door to his room is always shut, "Joanna noted

Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. "She used to sit with me on the sofa and talk, "said Mark. "Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady.”

Before age 11,children like to tell their parents what’s on their minds. ”in fact, parents are first on the list, "said Michael Riera , writer of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers.“This completely changes during the ten years, "Riera explained. "They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents- last.”

To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental (心灵)break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children, is a better way to know them.
