PROBLEMS WITH THE PARENTS
The majority of young people in Britain today accept most of the beliefs, customs and behaviour of their parents. But they have become much more independent since the Pop Revolution of the 1960s. At that time they developed their own separate culture: they started listening to different music, wearing different clothes, working out different ideas about life, using different words and behaving differently.
What parents think about their children-teenagers:
- that everything is wrong with today’s teenagers. They want to be treated like adults but they won’t take adult responsibilities. They just sit around, listening to loud music. They never listen to us. They don’t even like us. They and their friends just use the house like a convenient hotel and they wear these terrible clothes. Moreover they do it to upset us.
And what some today’s teenagers think about their parents:
- they are so boring. They want us to be like them and accept their way of life. They think about us like about criminals. They don’t like the way we look. They’re afraid what the neighbours will think of our hair and clothes. They treat us like kids - always ordering us around. They are jealous because we have a much better time than they used to have when they were young.
Maybe some easy rules could reconcile two sides:
- All members of the family must do an equal share of the housework according to age and ability. A list of duties will be put up each week.
- Children and parents have an equal right to free time.
- Children have a right to bring friends home whenever they like.
- Bedtime will be fixed according to age. Children of 15 may go to bed when they like.

- Parents must not break promises. Parents must not cancel plans suddenly. Parents must not criticize their children in public.
- Parents are not always right.
