Are you the only child in the family? If so, you are the most important in your family. Parents are the
closest people to you in the world. But a lot of middle school students have a problem. They feel they're not
as close to their parents as before. They even don't think their parents are fair (公平的) to them.
Some students complain that their parents often say a lot to them, but never listen to them. Some say their
parents don't allow them to play computer games when other classmates are doing that. Others say when
they're making phone calls to friends, their parents like to ask if they're speaking to a boy or a girl. These make
them very unhappy. Some students even decide to leave home because they're afraid to tell their parents when
they have done something wrong, especially when they do badly in exams. Then they usually think running
away is the only choice (选择). But they don't know running away may bring them some more problems.
Problems are parts of life. Here are some suggestions for you to solve your problems.
1) Find a good chance to talk with your parents. Don't be afraid to tell them your feelings.
2)Get help from others like good friends or teachers.
3)Keep a diary to help you understand more about yourself and your feelings.
4)Show your parents you' re growing up. Then they'll feel you' re no longer a small child. If you follow
the advice, you'll have a happy life and never think of running away.
