Throughout my life,I have been lucky enough to have a very good relationship with my parents. They have supported me,1       me necessary criticism,and taught me a great deal about 2        to live my life. Parents can be very important teachers in our lives;3      ,they are not 4        the best teachers.

For example,they may limit a child's freedom in the name of safety. A teacher might 7       a trip to a big city as a valuable new experience. However,it might seem 8        dangerous to a parent.

Another problem is that parents may expect their children's interests to be 9        to their own. They can't seem to 10        from their children in their mind. If they love science,they may try to 11        their child to love science too. But 12       if their child's true love is art,or writing,or car repair?

Parents are usually eager to 13        their value to their children. But should children always believe what their parents do? Maybe different generations need different ways of thinking. When children are young,they 14       that their parents are always right. But when they get older,they realize there are other 15       ,Sometimes parents,especially older ones,can't 16       rapid social or technology changes. A student who has friends of all different races and backgrounds at school may find that her parents don't really 17        or value the digital revolu?tion. Sometimes kids have to find their own ways to 18        they believe in.
