Dear Editor，    I

     Ken I finish my homework，I often chat with my friends on the Internet．Sometimes I play Internet games．But my parents hate to see me playing games on the computer．Maybe they have heard of too much bad news about QQ and  Internet games．Once 1 went to a net bar to play games after sch001．But I  told my parents that I played basketball at school．I said so because I didn’t want to make them unhappy．I feel bad about lying．However，，I heed to rest for a while by playing computer games after studying for a long time．I really hope my parents understand me．Do foreign parents do the same to their children ? Please help me．

Dear Wang Lin,      I think it' s not strange for parents to want to keep their children away from anything bad. Foreign parents will do the same as your parents! They may not let their children watch TV for too long a time. they also don' t want their children to play computer games.      Talk to your parents and be honest to them, I think. Tell them what you are doing and why you are doing so to make them understand you. It' s never good to do things behind your parents' backs. They aren't fools as you think of them sometimes! Our parents seem to know what is the best for us. Remember: to be honest is the best way.

Some people think only school children do not agree with their parents, however, it is not true．Communication is a problem for parents anti children of all ages．If it’s hard for you to communicate with your parents, don’t worry about it．Here are some advice for you to bridge the generation gap (消除代沟)．

Don’t argue (争辩)with your parents．Don’t get to your parents when you are angry．Your parents probably won’t consider your idea．If you are shouting at them, and you can’t express yourself well if you are angry．Go some place to cool off．Make sure you understand why you are unhappy．Then think about what you want to say to your parents, if you don’t think you can speak to them at the moment, try writing a letter．

      Try to reach a compromise (和解)．Perhaps yon and your parents disagree on something．You can keep your disagree and try your best to accept each other．Michael’s mother didn’t agree with him about buying a motorcycle．They argued over it．But they finally came to a compromise．Michael bought the motorcycle, but only drove it on certain days．

Of course, your parents might refuse to compromise on something．In these situations, it is especially important to show love and respect (尊敬) to them．Showing respect will keep your relationship strong．

Talk about your values．The values of yours parents are probably different first those of your own Tell your Parents what you care about and why．Understanding your values might help them see your purposes in life．

A good relationship with your parents can make, you a better and happier person．It is worth having a fry!
