【題目】

For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a 1 conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about 2: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?

Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part, this is because neither is willing to any responsibility for starting it. From the parents' point of view, the only 3 of their fight is their adolescents' complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.

In this article, I'll describe three no-win situations that commonly 4 between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrels over 5 things. Examples include the color of the teen's hair, the cleanliness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child's failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his 6 to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad 7 is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn't matter what the topic is--politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg--the 8 of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong, for both wish to be considered an authority--someone who actually knows something--and therefore to 9 respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to 10 that they know more than the other, they'll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.
