I wish my parents can understand the mind of a teen.

- skater87100, you are not alone, because many teens out there would like it if parents would just understand them.
- Some parents do not understand, because they passed that age and their teen years were different from your own teen years. The social media, the way to communicate, and the problems rising at that age may not have been present at their time.
- It may help if you try to find a parent you feel most comfortable talking to and make a plan to have a family night, because that is when people talk and feel more connected.
- Some parents are afraid of losing their child during those teen years, so if you try to establish a relationship where you can talk to them, then they can give you some space.
- Also, keep writing to TeenCentral.Net, because there are other teen just like you and if parents just don't understand, then you can express your mind somewhere else.
- Keep in mind that they were teens once, so whenever you feel frustrated that they are not understanding you, try to turn the tables on them. Try to make them think of their own teen years and how frustrated they must have felt when their own parents did not understand. Some parents may remember and give you more understanding.
