I think alot of problems between parents and kids is the lack of communication and empathy. Kids should speak up more and parents should listen more.But that is just my opinion. 😬
Mine also.
This kind of reminds me of some circumstances in churches, which I gave a speech about. Parents won't let their kids be honest because the kids are afraid that their parents will judge them. So, the daughter gets pregnant and gets an abortion because she is afraid to tell her parents that she is pregnant. She is afraid of the condemnation.
When I spoke in front of a group once, I told them that if they were more open and sympathetic, then the girl would not have gotten an abortion and that the church needs to be more understanding and less condemning about these things. In the churches eyes, I said, which is the worst sin?
