[2026 南京市栖霞区期末]There are many problems that young people have to face when they stop being children. At this age all feelings and emotions are very strong. All problems seem very important.
The first terrible thing is the misunderstanding from the dearest people—parents. They do not understand why we need to buy things we want to buy, listen to this type of music or spend most of our spare time with our friends. We do not want to hurt their feelings but they should try to understand us.
The same misunderstanding we face sometimes comes from teachers. They think that youth is meant for studying. But a person who only studies is dull(无趣的). Some teachers do not understand that youth is the time for us to learn about people and about ourselves, to play and to try things. They try to keep us away from all dangers in our lives. But teenagers need adults to take them seriously and give them a friendly hand, not a punishment.
The problem of money is important as well. I think young people need to have pocket money for buying books, pens, ice-cream and so on. But I do not think it is a good idea to ask parents to give me some money. If I find a part-time job, they will say it can distract(使分心) me from studies. If I ask for money, they will say they spend too much on my school, clothes and other things.
Sometimes the problem of fashion appears. My parents try to buy me clothes according to their taste. Sometimes that’s all right, but sometimes I want something more fashionable, especially for summer. Then we can argue for hours. It is interesting that in the question of clothes, my mother is on my side, but in the question of books and music, my father supports me.
Being young is not easy, but it is an important time to learn and grow. Problems like these may seem big now, but they also help us understand ourselves better. If we can talk with adults honestly, find good friends who support us, and be true to who we are, we will get through these years smoothly. Remember, all these experiences—the good and the hard—are preparing us for the future ahead.
