From your hairstyle to your friends, to your marks at school, to your television habits, to your future plans, it might just seem like you argue with your parents about everything. While this is not generally a pleasant state of affairs, it is normal and it will most likely pass. Argue fairly Arguments between teens and parents generally come about when both parties believe that they know what is best for the teens. Parents have been caring for their teens for over a decade, but teens are quickly becoming adults and believe that they are able to take care of themselves. If you must argue with them, argue fairly by: ● allowing each person to speak their mind. ● refusing to interrupt others when they’re speaking. ● sticking only to the topic at hand. Argue respectfully No matter how heated things may get during an argument, try to remember that your parents are still worthy of your attention, respect and love. During arguments, be respectful by: ● keeping your voice lowered at all times and refusing to shout. ● staying calm. Avoiding angry actions such as kicking, throwing or hitting anything. ● reasonably explaining the reasons for your opinions. There is a thin line between a discussion and an argument, but smart teens know that keeping their interactions(互动) with their parents at the discussion level practically guarantees that they will be taken more seriously. No one likes to argue, and the parents can be very tired of it, so keeping things at the discussion level will work to everyone’s advantage. Arguing with parents is practically a sign of the teenaged years, but out-of-control arguments don’t serve anyone well. Before arguing with your parents, decide what type of teen you want to be and what compromises you are willing to make in order to achieve your goals. 1. This text mainly tells
