Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers .But last summer，Joanna Henry noticed a change in their older son：suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door of his room is always closed，” Joanna noted.
Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14¬year¬old daughter.“She used to cuddle up (蜷伏) 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. The problem is to find out which time is which.”
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 teen years.” Riera explained.“They talk to their friends first，then maybe their teachers，and their parents last.”
Parents who know what’s going on in their teenagers’lives are in the best position to help them. 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 (精神的)break，for children also need freedom，though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend，not a manager(管理者)，with their children is a better way to know them.

We can’t remember clearly since when we started to take our mobiles to a dinner table. This happens a lot, especially when we eat out. Once a dish comes, instead of lifting our chopsticks, we take out our mobiles and click. Later, we post the photos onto Weibo or Wechat, waiting to be “liked.” Then we check our mobiles from time to time during the meal, to see whether we get “liked” or not. We just cannot leave our mobiles for simply a meal.
Does that sound familiar to you? Do you do that often? If not, how do you feel when others do that when having dinner with you?
A recent study suggests that what we are used to doing is not that good. Spending time taking photos of food makes the food less pleasant. To test this, some researchers did an experiment. Some people were asked to take photos before they could enjoy food. It turned out that the more photos they took, . So, why not stop taking photos and just enjoy the food ahead of you?
Besides the scientific result, there are also some other bad influences of taking photos of food before meals. After posting the photos onto the Internet, one will be unable to control himself and check his mobile many times. “Does everyone accept my photo?
