Put yourself in their shoes. Whenever your parents say something that contradicts (与……矛盾) your opinion, try not to simply agree with them.
Try not to raise your voice at them. These will be times when you disagree with your parents. It is okay to try to help them understand your point of view. However, raising your voice is never a great idea, as it will leave your parents feeling hurt.
