Dear Dr. Green, My   relationship with mother is worse and worse now. It seems she’s never tired   of talking. She talks here and there day and night. More seriously, I feel like   we don't have much in common. She doesn't always understand what I'm trying   to say. What  should I do Yours                                                                   Jim

 

 

Dear Jim, I know how   you feel. It’s not easy being your age. And it’s not easy being a mother,   either. It’s common   for kids to have trouble talking with parents, and talkative mothers are not   new to teenagers. But remember, she's nagging (唠嗑) you because she just wants what’s best for   you. Talking is her way to show love and care. And she also wants to know   more about you. After a day’s work. She’s tired. too. But she will never be tired   of caring about you. Kids should learn to understand and care about parents. In my   opinion, It’s helpful to share school life with her. Then you talk and, she   listens. Doing some housework together with her is another good way for you two   to know each other better. And if possible, often tell her your feelings   about the things around you. Always keep in mind: be polite and patient. Yours, Dr Green
