The days of mine are not all sunny. As a middle school student, I have many problems. On the one hand, I am under great pressure(压力) in my studies, I need to take the exams every month. If I fall behind other students, I will feel that I am not doing well. I always want to be the best, but things can’t go on my way. On the other hand, I don’t want to talk to my parents about my problems. If they ask me questions, I will answer them with few words. I think they won’t understand me. And my body grows fast, changes happen in me, I can’t control my emotion(情绪). What should I do?
Laura
Dear Laura,
It’s normal to have these problems. But don’t worry. The life is not always wonderful. Everybody has growing pains(痛苦) on their way to the growth. But the time is fair(公平的), gains(收获) are always with pains. Growing pains seem full of knowledge and experience. Although there’s so much homework, so many exams, and so many different ideas between the parents and you, you will learn how to make your dreams come true by working hard and how to understand each other by talking with your parents. Growing pains worry you a lot but they will give you power(力量) and confidence(自信) at the same time. They can help you to be successful and make more friends as well. Successes and friendships can make you happy and enjoyable. Both pains and gains can make your life more colorful. So I think what you need to do is learning to adjust(调节) yourself and get used to these changes. You need to open your heart and have less pressure.
