If the child has been brought up in a loving, openly communicative environment, the relationship with parents would be a strong one．It is only when there are ongoing troubles in the relationship between parents and the child that there is a breakdown in communication．
When parents are going through difficulties in their own relationship, the child sometimes develops guilt．The child can hold himself or herself responsible for the breakdown in relationship between the parents．This needs to be explained to the child, who won’t speak out this guilt．
The teenage years are emotionally sensitive years to the outside world．For the first time the child realizes his or her position in society．Friends suddenly become more important than parents．It is during this time that the relationship between children and parents is tested．If the bond with parents is strong, the child will not be influenced by the drug and alcohol culture．If the bond is weaker, the child will end up with problems．
During such times, one of the effective ways to deal with the problems is to discuss the problem with the child．As parents, you will need to discuss the results of each choice and then leave the final decision to the child．Forcing parental will on children is counterproductive (适得其反的), especially at this age．Forcing parental will at this time will stop communicating and then you will not know what is happening in their life．Whatever the problem is, the child need never be made to feel lonely．The moment that happens, the possibility of serious self-harm is raised．
Any problem at this age can be dealt with by a flexible (灵活的) way by parents．Discuss things calmly．Leave the decision to the individual．Make yourself available for any help or support that the child hopes．The child will feel comfortable when allowed the freedom of choice．If parents have trouble with their relationship, the child__________ ．

The expression “down to earth” means being open and honest. It is easy to get on with some one who is down to earth. A down-to-earth person is the opposite of someone who acts important or proud.
Down-to-earth people could be important members of society. But they do not consider themselves to be better than others who are less important. A person who is filled with his own importance and pride is said to“ have his nose in the air”.
Americans use another expression that is similar in some ways to down to earth. The expression is“ both feet on the ground”. Someone with both feet on the ground is a person with a good understanding of reality. He may have dreams, but he does not allow them to have influence on his understanding of what is real.
The opposite kind of person is one who “has his head in the clouds”. Someone with his head in the clouds is a person whose mind is not on what is happening in real life. Such a person may be called a day-dreamer.
When we have both our feet on the ground, and when we are down to earth, we do not have our noses in the air. We act honestly and openly to others. Our lives are like the ground below us---solid and strong.A down-to-earth person could be _____.
| A．social and proud | B．good and opposite |
| C．real and important | D．strong and changeable |
