Parents are the closest people to you in the world. They love you, and they would do anything for you. But like a lot of middle school students, Linda has a problem. She and her parents don't get on well. "I really want to be my daddy's sweet girl. But my daddy just doesn't understand. He talks with me but doesn't listen." said Linda.

Recently, a study showed that many families had the same problem as Linda's family. The children, 12 to 15 years old, don't like talking with their parents much. They aren't happy at home.

Of course, lots of kids feel that way. But you and your parents will be much happier if you can be friends. Here are some ways to have a good talk with them:

◆ Find a good time to talk, like when you're eating dinner, going out for a walk or watching TV.

◆ Tell them something you're interested in, or ask them about their life when they were young. They love to talk about that!

◆ Listen to them carefully, and book at them in the eye.

◆ Be honest. Your parents will trust you more.
