I spend a fair amount of time trying to get William to sleep, to get Elliott to get involved in something that will actually keep him happy fo
36、r a little while, or to get William to play on the floor for 10 minutes straight so that I can get something done. But, a lot of days, it seems like Im not succeeding in any of those efforts.So, yesterday, a friend of mine posted a picture on Facebook. This particular friend has a baby who is about
37、a month younger than William. The picture was of the baby, who had made his way across the floor to the toys housed along the side of the room. I just kept looking at that picture and thinking that if only William had some different toys to play with, perhaps he would stay occupied a bit longer at a
38、 stretch. But William seems so bored with all of his toys! And I am so ready for him to be ready to play. In order to find a way to make him playing longer, I kept looking at that picture. Suddenly, I realized my sons need to play closer to me.So I cleared off the cubby(围起来的)shelves in the playroom,
39、 and my husband and I moved it to the living room. We found all of the toys that would be safe for William and put them in the cubbies. Then, we pulled the play kitchen in.William was so interested in what I was doing that he sat there and played and chewed on his toys while we moved furniture. When
40、 we were done, I moved him over closer to the cubbies and he got so excited that he didnt disturb for an hour, while I made dinner and cleaned up! Even Elliott played happily for a few hours. It was a dream come true! And I got to know that my lack of happy children was because of my desire for a to

For this, there are many reasons but most of them stem from not being able to properly understand their
45、 teens. It is a dangerous gap because parents will have to communicate with their teens about a wide variety of issues during the most important years of their lives. Thus, parents must know how to communicate openly and honestly with their teens.Here are a few tips to make communication easier betw
46、een parents and teenagers.1. Try not to talk down to your teens. Make them feel as if their views really matter, which not only helps your discussions with your teen but bring you closer to him.2. Imagine what it would be like to be a teen. Try to remember some of the negative feelings you experienc
47、ed as a teenager and apply it to your teens situation.3. Never make negative remarks to your teen about what he has said or done.4. Remember how much courage it would have taken for your teen to come and talk to you about his personal issues. So listen respectfully.5. Dont ignore your teens feelings
48、 because it is usually a cry for help. For instance, if your teen is unusually angry, it may be time to spend a bit of quality time with your teen to determine what is wrong and where he is coming from.It is, therefore, necessary for parents to strive to keep lines of communication open at all times with their teens. Try to remember what it was like to be a teenager and how vulnerable（脆弱的） you felt. Then you will be well on your way to help your teen communicate more openly and honestly.1
