angry clean cry decision instead |
Who made decisions for you when you were a kid? Yes, your parents. As a kid, your parents made decisions about everything from the breakfast you had in the morning to the pajamas you wore at night. And it's good because kids aren't old enough to take care of themselves and make careful decisions on their own.
But finally, kids grow up and become teens. And part of being a teen is developing your own identity(身份)—one that is separate from your parents. It's totally normal for teens to create their own opinions, thoughts, and values about life. It's what prepares them for adulthood.
But as you change and grow into this new person, your parents may have difficulties adjusting(调整).They aren't used to the new you yet.
In most families, this kind of change can cause a lot of fights between teens and parents. You want to cover your walls with posters. They don't understand why you don't like your kiddie wallpaper anymore. You think it's OK to hang out at the mall after school, while they would rather you played a sport.
Clashes like these are very common between teens and parents - teens get angry because they feel parents don't respect them and aren't giving them space to do what they like, and parents get angry because they disagree with the teen's decisions. The basic reason is that your parents will always try to protect you and keep you safe, no matter how old you are.
