But a lot of middle school students have a problem. They feel they’re not as close to their parents as before. They even don’t think their parents are fair(公平的) to them.Some students complain(抱怨) that their parents often say a lot to them, but never listen to them. Some say their parents don’t allow them to play computer games when other classmates are doing that. Others say when they’re making phone calls to friends, their parents like to ask if they’re speaking to a boy or a girl. These make them very unhappy. Some students even decide to leave home because they’re afraid to tell their parents when they did something wrong, especially(尤其) when they get bad grades in exams. Then they usually think running away is the only thing they can do. But they don’t know running away may bring them some more problems.Problems are parts of life.
