Here are some ways to love your parents._ You can use these moments to learn from them when youre off on your own. Its OK to be angry, but angry actions dont help you or your parents. Act calmly, cool off, keep a diary about your feelings, or talk to a friend. After this, show your feelings to your parents._ It depends on what you do. For example, if you get home late without calling first, next time your parents may not believe you. To get their trust, you must pay attention to the ways you do things instead of fighting with them. It will make your life much easier._ You can watch TV, or go somewhere with them. Anyway, spend as much time with them as you can. You can go hiking together, your parents will get to know that you have the ability to deal with different problems, and they will understand you more. Listen to their old stories and learn from them. You will find they are your teachers in one way or another. _ A gentle good morning and I love you will warm the coldest heart every morning. Remember that they brought you into the world. Without your parents, you might still wander at an unknown corner in an unknown world._ It will help you to get more respect from them. It may seem like you are going through hell when you dont get what you want or you have to clean the room when you arent willing to do that at that moment.
