How to Live Peacefully with Your Parents
As a teen,you are going through big changes physically and mentally.Your interests are expanding.1..
Here is the challenge: kids need to explore the world in new ways,and parents need to protect them from the dangers that are all out in the world.These conflicts(冲突)can easily set off fireworks in otherwise calm house. Sometimes conflicts can't be avoided.But by paying attention to the building blocks of successful relationships,you can work towards making home a happy and healthy place for you and your parents.
For example,try to find time to talk when your parents are not angry,tired,or hungry.A good time to talk is when you are all relaxed.Timing is everything.If the conversation begins to turn into an argument,you'd better calmly and coolly ask to stop it.2..Listen to what your parents are saying,and repeat it back to them.This shows them that you are listening.3. .
Respect is the building block of good communication.People who respect each other and care about each other's feeling can disagree without getting things ugly.
4..How do you build trust?Trust,comes by actually doing what you say you are going to do.Some teens find that doing fun activities with their parents can improve their relationships.Sometime we forget that parents are more than rule makers---they're interesting people who like to watch movies and go shopping---just like their teenagers!
What do you do if you are trying your best,but your relationship with your parents continues to be rocky?5. You can find supportive adults,such as a teacher or a coach,who can lend an ear.Remember you can only change your own behavior.Your parents are the ones who can change theirs.
A.You may consider seeking outside help.
B.Faced with this challenge,children don't know what to do.
C.And then you will be able to accept what your parents say.
D.You are more likely to get along with your parents and have more independence if your parents believe in you.
E.And your desire to take control of your own life is growing.
F.It also gives them a chance to clear things up if you are not on the same page.
G.You can pick it up again when everyone's more relaxed.
It all began with a stop at a red light.
Kevin Salwen was driving his 14-year-old daughter,Hannah,back from a sleepover in 2006.While waiting at a traffic light,they saw a black Mercedes Coupe on one side and a homeless man begging for food on the other.
"Dad,if that man had a less nice car,that man there could have a meal," Hannah protested.The light changed and they drove on,but Hannah was too young to be reasonable.She pestered(纠缠)her parents about inequity,insisting that she wanted to do something.
"What do you want to do?" her mom responded. "Sell our house?"
Warning!Never suggest a grand gesture to an idealistic teenager.Hannah seized upon the idea of selling the luxurious family home and donating half the proceeds(收入)to charity,while using the other half to buy a more modest replacement home.
Eventually,that's what the family did.The project—crazy,impetuous(鲁莽的)and absolutely inspiring—is written down in detail in a book by father and daughter scheduled to be published next month: The Power of Half.It's a book that,frankly,I'd be nervous about leaving around where my own teenage kids might find it.An impressionable child reads this,and the next thing you know your whole family is out on the street.
At a time of enormous needs in Haiti and elsewhere,when so many Americans are trying to help Haitians by sending everything from text messages to shoes,the Salwens offer an example of a family that came together to make a difference—for themselves as much as the people they were trying to help.In a column a week ago,it described neurological(神经生物学的)evidence from brain scans that unselfishness lights up parts of the brain normally associated with more primary satisfaction.The Salwens' experience confirms the selfish pleasures of selflessness.
Mr.Salwen and his wife,Joan,had always assumed that their kids would be better bigger house.But after they downsized,there was much less space to retreat to,so the family members spent more time around each other.A smaller house unexpectedly turned out to be a more family-friendly house.
