The conflict with my parents over their refusal to embrace the internet created a significant rift in our rapport, deeply affecting my social and psychological life. I vividly remember a heated evening when I tried to explain the benefits of social media for connecting with friends and finding opportunities. My parents remained steadfast, viewing technology as a barrier to genuine communication. This clash frustrated me and isolated me from my peers, who increasingly relied on online platforms to share experiences. I felt torn between the digital world I embraced and my parents' traditional values, leading to a profound sense of loneliness and misunderstanding.

Last year, I had a conflict with my parents when they refused to let me use the internet for social media and online gaming. They believed spending too much time online would distract me from my studies and lead to negative influences.

While I understood their concerns, I felt isolated from my friends, who used the internet to stay connected and plan activities. This made me feel left out and anxious about missing out on social events. It also affected my confidence because I couldn't participate in group conversations or gaming sessions, which were important to my social life at the time.

Their denial of my request to freely access the internet made me feel isolated and worried, as I found it difficult to articulate the significance of the internet in both my studies and social interactions. The difference in perspectives on technology's impact highlighted the generational gap in understanding.

According to Joanne Stern, disputes between parents and teenagers are unavoidable because of the normal transitions that teenagers go through as they try to become independent and develop their own identities. This concept goes against conventional parenting beliefs.

Rather than barely attempting to prevent arguments, parents might view these instances as chances for development and a better knowledge of their teenagers.

Navigating the conflict with my parents over my refusal to use their preferred term for my cultural identity was challenging. They felt disrespected and worried I was distancing myself from our heritage. This created tension at home, making communication difficult and leaving me feeling isolated.

No, I don’t agree that handling conflicts fairly would help the relationship between the parents and the child since shouting and punishing them, will only make them more mad about doing it and they will keep doing the things that are bad and not suppose to do.

I'll do anything to avoid confrontation; even if that includes pretending, I overlook the half-eaten bagel with cream cheese sitting on my 17-year-old daughter's nightstand for two weeks." But it turns out Debra is not doing her kids any favors.
