Giving advice on parent-child relationships
Read the parts of some teenagers' emails below and describe each problem in one sentence.
My mum keeps a notebook of my grades in every exam. She asks my teachers how I'm doing at school whenever she can. It seems as if my grades are the most important thing in her life. When we're at home, she keeps pressing me to study all the time. I do as she says, but she is never happy with my grades. Why can't she leave me alone I want to take a break once in a while.
I want to listen to music or go out with my friends. Is that too much to ask for

I'm eager for my parents' love. They're always busy at work. I hardly ever see them during the week because they don't get home until late at night. I tell them that I'm stressed about schoolwork, but neither of them show any concern. Sometimes I feel quite lonely at home. When was the last time we had a family outing at the weekend When was the last time we had a long talk How can parents not care about their children
-- Simon

Everyone says that youth is a time for adventure, but my parents disagree. I spend most of my spare time at home, because they hardly ever let me go out with my friends. When I do go out, they always ask, “Where are you going ”“Who are you going with ””What are you going to do ”“When will you be back ” They're always on my back about something.
I understand that they're trying to protect me from getting hurt. However, just as a baby kangroo must learn to protect itself when it leaves its mother's pocket, I will have to learn to protect myself when I grow up. I wish they could be more flexible so that I can make my own choices about what to do in my spare time. -- Laura

Dear Rebecca,
I understand your feelings. As you mentioned in the email, you put a lot of effort into your schoolwork. If your mother doesn’t value that, of course you’re going to be unhappy.
But remember: every parent has high hopes for their children. Your mother wants you to be successful but she probably fails to see how you struggle. Try these pieces of advice and see if they help improve your relationship.
First, talk to your mother. Make sure she understands your feelings. Choose a good time and start the conversation politely. You can begin with something like, “I know that you expect me to do well at school, but I’m struggling sometimes. Can we please talk ” you should also try to meet in the middle when talking to your mother. Of course, school matters, but relaxation is good for you too. Tell your mother about your interests and ask for more free time

to spend on them. For example, if you like listening to music, explain
why you enjoy it and how it helps you. Why don’t you make a deal that
you are both satisfied with
Second, put yourself in your mother’s shoes and try to understand what she
does. I know it isn’t easy, but you must be patient. When your mother keeps
pressing you to study all the time, think about the reason why she does so.
When I was your age, I thought senior high school was tiring too. I couldn’t
understand why my parents were so strict with me. However, when I grew up,
I realized that they just wanted me to have the best possible future. After that,
I became so much closer to my mum and dad.
Everything will turn out all right, I promise.
Yours sincerely,
Cynthia
