五、阅读理解。
When a teen and a parent argue, it does not mean that something is wrong with their relationship. It just means that they see things in different ways. Parents of teenagers should realize this kind of arguments happens in almost every family.
In the early years of children's lives, parents are the most important people in their world. Their love and support mean a lot to children. As children get older and have more contact with other people than their parents, their behaviours will be influenced by other people.
Building up independence
As teens build up independence, parents need to understand a number of points. They are still the most important influence in their children's lives while teens are trying to become adults. One of their greatest difficulties is becoming independent while keeping a loving relationship with parents.
Fighting for control
When children are young, many parents keep control over most parts of their children's life. These parents choose their children's clothes, friends, hobbies and so on. As children grow older, they realize they can never grow into adults without having control of their lives. As a result, teens begin to fight for control. In this period, even a simple topic can trigger a disagreement. Topics that cause the greatest stress in a family include family rules, responsibility and so on. In fact, teens are still worried about losing the most important thing in their lives—the love of parents. At the same time, parents may feel hurt about teens' abilities to care for themselves. It is stressful because everyone cares so greatly about each other.

What are some ways that parents can begin to break the cycle of disagreement with their teens? First of all, be aware that teenagers must become independent to become adults. If becoming independent is the task of children, then the task of parents must be to help their children reach independence by allowing them to walk(and fall), talk(and make mistakes) and slowly take control of their lives. Also, parents should try to keep the communication lines open and be a good example for their teens to follow. Sometimes parents may need to learn new ways to deal with their own problems, instead of allowing the teens' fight for independence to get mixed up with their questions.
