TOEFL essay_1 Teenage conflict with their parents as a necessary part of growing up or it is as something negative which should be avoided Teenagers and their parents are different generations. They have different habits, they do not like the same things. The conflict between teenagers and their parents is a normal part of growing up. It starts when the teenager is thirteen and it ends when the boy or the girl start to live alone. Parents need to support their child and not to be judgmental. First of all, this conflict is a sign that the teenager wants to reveal he is an adult. He does that he wants and doesn’t listen parent’s pieces of advice. When I was thirteen I have never listened to my parents. If they recommend to me a book or something else I always said «No! It’s not interesting for me!» I'v never call to my parents when I was late at the school or a library. «Why do I need to call? I’m an adult person!» When I started to live alone I began to appreciate my parent’s attention and take care of they. I always say my Mom and Dad “Hi. I’m fine. Good night». Second of all, the teenager feels alone. Nobody can’t understand him. He is unique. His parents are very busy and can’t find time to talk with him, there are always occupy. The teenager tries to find new friends who can satisfy his curiosity. Finally, I want to say that a teenage conflict is a normal period of live and a necessary part of growing up in every teenager.
