What teenagers want to tell their parents?

Time has changed drastically at all angles and levels. From the abstract to the factual activities of human being change is inevitable and it has ruined the moral fiber of Filipino. Students before are entirely different from the students now in so many aspects. Students before cannot argue to their parents; they are dependent to their parents and even their personal choice of anything has the approval of the parents. In this, children can tell their parents anything they want. Here are some points high school students want to tell their parents.

I AM AN ADULT AND I CAN DO WHAT I WANT.

Students nowadays prefer to act by themselves and leave behind their parents, once the feeling of getting adult knocks around. The feeling of acting alone and being independents is an experience of fulfillment and relief without thinking the need for them to cling to their parents for guidance and protection.

RESPECT MY CHOICE, MY PERCEPTION AND MY WAY OF LIFE.

Preferences on as many things reflect how a student’s selects color, course to take, food to eat, attire to wear and so many others. However, leaving behind the parents words of wisdom and experiences-laden admonition is against the will of the creator as the only commandments of God with a promise of long life by giving honor to parents in recognition to their roles and responsibility towards their children.

I VALUE YOUR ADVICE WHEN I ASK FOR IT.

They want to tell their parents advice really works well and it makes them inspired and happy to know that parents do take their share in giving those good moral values and advice for life. The only way to be of great value to God and people is to take heed to the golden rule and to be receptive to the advice of their parents in a rational manner.

I HAVE A LIFE OF MY OWN.

They seem to tell everyone that they want to be given freedom to decide for themselves and do what they want to do; they too can live life not just a living. The student life is a signal of acting alone and working alone.

RESPECT MY STANDARDS.

The trouble between parents and children are the setting of standards that is inappropriate and repressive to children but to the parents the standards has been working for a long time and they themselves are the living witness to these standards.

 

RESPECT MY HOME.

Children are acting sometimes as if the sole authority of calling their own home as their own sending their parents outside as an alien out of their either by a parents and how to be a parent.

I CAN CHOOSE MY OWN MATE.

The basis of students in choosing a person to love and to be loved is not solely based on their own standard without the intervention or advices from parents as to what kind of boy and girl they wants be with and sleep with. The role of parents is out of the context for children when choosing a boy or a girl they want to love.

I NEED TO BE NEEDED.

The feeling of belonging is a feeling that children treasure most in a family and long for the care and love of their brothers and sisters which is a part of the deteriorating values of our generation.

ALLOW ME TO DISCUSS THE FUTURE

Children sometimes want parent’s guidance and direction in life and what to follow while growing up. This is the time for parents and children to talk about the future of time to weight things in proper perspective to make life just a living.
