Parents with high expectations for their children are nothing new to Chinese kids. However, people often don’t realize that children also have expectations for their parents. What expectations do Chinese children have for parent-child relationships?

China Youth & Children Research Center did a survey on this topic in the United States, Japan, South Korea and China. The survey found that 83.8 percent of Chinese children want to be friends with their parents, the greatest amount among the four countries. This means that they want a more equal（平等的） relationship with their parents.

According to China Youth Daily, traditional Chinese values (價(jià)值觀) such as respecting one’s elders and the concept of hierarchy (等級(jí)觀念) are preventing parents from becoming friends with their children. Many Chinese parents criticize (批評(píng)) and push their children, as there is lots of competition in school. It requires efforts from both parents and children to create a friendship in family. As children, what can you do to create a pleasant atmosphere (氛圍) at home and make friends with your parents? Read on to find out.

Tips to make home a happy place

How can we get along better with our parents, and at the same time, grow into adults ourselves? Here are some tips.

●Act like an adult

If you want your parents to give you more freedom, you should show them that you’re ready to be treated differently. For example, learn to use self-control. Show them that you can manage your time well.

●Open your heart

US psychologist (心理學(xué)家) Carl E. Pickhard wrote in Psychology Today that sharing feelings with our parents can lead to positive changes, while not sharing them can cause misunderstandings.

●Care for your parents

Do something nice or helpful for your parents. For example, help them with some home chores, make them gifts or teach them some computer skills. Their trust in you will grow.
