Being a parent of a teenager is not easy. If you have a teenager at your home, you usually feel difficult and tired.
Parents must first understand the reasons before they start to solve the problems. There are too many reasons for problems between teenagers and parents, but there are some common reasons for parents and teenagers' problems.
Firstly, a teenager gets bad grades at school. The parents of the teenager with problems of getting the bad grades in school will be worried about the teenager's future. Secondly, a teenager is hanging out with a bad group. Thirdly, parents can't have a good talk with their teenagers.
In fact, parents can solve these problems. There are lots of parents who have the same problems as you. You can ask them for some advice. You can also ask the teenagers' teachers for help. Going to a family counsellor (顾问) is also a great idea. After all, family counsellors know some good ways to solve the problems between teenagers and their parents and they can be helpful. What's more, you'd better read some books about parenting in your free time. Though it is an old idea, it really works. Finally, do things together, such as going to a movie or playing games. You and your teenagers can find lots of common topics (话题) in these activities.
All in all, solving family problems might seem hard, but if everyone talks about his or her feelings, everything should work out in the end. There are many books about parent and teenager relationships and the books can help you improve your talks. Just try your best and everything will improve slowly.
