Mom and dad are two of the most important people in your life. And they’re likely to influence you more than anyone else. It’s parents’ job to love and guide kids—and most parents will do this as long as they live, even when the “kids” are grown-ups and have children of their own. That means you have many years ahead to share with your mom and dad. So how to get along with parents?
Spend time together. When at home, ask your mom and dad to play with you instead of playing a computer game or watching TV. Go outside together, try a board game, or read a book out loud.
Share your feelings and ask for help. Many kids say they’d like their parents to help them when they’re upset. But your mom or dad might not know that you’re having a problem. Tell a parent if you’re sad or struggling with something.
Be kind, little things might mean a lot to your mom or dad. You can brighten a parent’s day with a hug, a card, or a joke. It’s also lovely when a kid offers to help fold the laundry or cleans up his or her room without being asked.
__________. Some families are always kissing and hugging, and saying “I love you”, while other families may not do like that. But it’s important to show that you care for each other. In addition to kisses and hugs, kids and parents show their love by respecting each other, and being polite and thoughtful.
Do your best at whatever you do. You don’t have to be perfect, but when you do your best, you make your parents proud. It makes them happy to see how you’re turning into such a great kid.
