parents often have the mentality of nt wanting to lose in a quarrel

nowadays are intellectually and physically superior over their
parents, parents are afraid of losing the sense of authority they
feel they should have over their children.. not that i'm trying to
imply that all parents are control freaks, i personally think that
parents do not want to lose control of their children as they are
afraid that their children might not be doing the right thing and
nt have any control over the situation as parents..
[b]so lets be nice kids and let them win
k? (compromise)
but we muz rmb that adults are humans and they make mistakes (just
like us )too

my 2 cents.. cheerz[/b]
yeah, agree!! that's what i tell myself too!
it's not easy to control ourselves during a heated debate. but
perhaps we can ask ourselves this question when we are calm - "do i
really love my parents?". if the answer is "yes", then try to
compromise with them. anyway, if u love them, u just want them to
be happy...and to make them happy, let them win lor!!
