Some people think only school children do not agree with their
parents.However，it is not true.Communication is a problem
for parents and children of all ages.If it's hard for you to
communicate with your parents，don't worry about it.Here is
some advice for you to bridge the generation gap(代沟)．
Don't argue with your parents.Don't get to your parents when
you are angry.Your parents probably won't consider your
ideas if you are shouting at them.And you can't express
yourself well if you are angry.Go to 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.
五、读写综合之回答问题
Try to reach a compromise(和解)．Perhaps you and your
parents disagree on something.Your parents disagree on
something.You can keep your disagreement and try your best
to accept each other.Michael's mother didn't agree with him
about buying a microphone.They argued over it.But they
finally came to a compromise.Michael bought the microphone，
but only used it after school.
Of course，your parents might refuse to compromise on
something.In these situations，it is especially important to
show love and respect to them.Showing respect will keep your
relationship strong.
Talk about your values.The values of your parents are
probably different from those of your own.Tell your parents
what you care about，and why.Understanding your values
may 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 try!
