But last summer, Joanna and Henry noticed a change in their older son: suddenly he seemed to be talking far more to his friends than to his parents. “The door to his room is always shut,” Joanna noted.Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter. “She used to sit in my arms on the sofa and talk with me,” said Mark. “Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something. Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady. The problem is figuring out which time is which.”Before age 11, children like to tell their parents whats on their minds. “In fact, parents are first on the list,” said Michael Riera, author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers. “This completely changes during the teen years,” said Riera explained. “They talk to their friends first, then maybe their teachers, and their parents last.”Parents who know whats going on in their teenagers lives are in the best position to help them. To break down the wall of silence, parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say, and try to find ways to talk and write to them. And they must give their children a mental break, for children also need freedom, though young. Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend, not a manager, with their children is a better way to know them.1.

If so, exactly what is that secret success formula(公式), and can anyone develop it?At the Gallop Organization we recently focused in depth on success, inquiring into the attitudes of 1500 distinguished people selected at random（任意地）from Whos Who in America. Our research finds out a number of qualities that occur regularly among top achievers. Here is one of the most important, that is common sense.Common sense is the most widely possessed quality of the people surveyed. 79 percent award themselves a top score in this quality. And 61 percent say that common sense is very important in contributing to their success.To most, common sense means the ability to present sound, practical judgments on everyday affairs. To do this, one has to remove extra ideas and get right to the key points of what matters. A Texas oil and gas businessman puts it this way: The key ability for success is simplifying. In conduction of meeting and dealing with industry reducing a complex problem to the simplest term is highly important.Is common sense a quality a person is born with, or can you do something to increase it? The oil mans answer is that common sense can definitely be developed. He owes his to learning how to debate in school. Another way to increase your store of common sense is to observe it in others, learning from theirand your ownmistakes.Besides common sense, there are many other factors that influence success: knowing your field, self-reliance, intelligence, the ability to get things done, leadership, creativity, relationships with others, and of course, luck. But common sense stands out. If you develop these qualities, youll succeed. And you might even find yourself listed in Whos Who someday.Topic: Secrets to SuccessFinding of the (1)_Top achievers have some common (2)_, one of which is common sense.The most important quality79 percent of the people surveyed (3)_ highly of common sense.
