Parents always want the best for their kids. But everyone has their own way of parenting（养育）. Here are some popular parenting styles. Which one do you like best?

Tiger parents（虎爸虎妈）.They are strict with their children. They want them to get the best grades in their class. They love their kids in their hearts.

Dolphin parents（海豚式父母）. They just want their kids to be happy and healthy. They make sure their kids get enough sleep and exercise.

Helicopter parents（直升机式父母）. They worry too much about their children and “fly” over them like helicopters. Many people think these parents should give their children more freedom（自由） .

Lawnmower parents（割草机式父母）. Like a lawnmower that cuts glass, they get rid of （去除）all difficulties for their children.Their kids never learn to work out problems on their own.

When you’re a teenager, it seems that every time you say “I want to …”, someone answers “No, you can’t”. Also, no part of your life is safe from the prying (窥视的) eyes of your parents.

A 15-year-old girl, Debbie says, “My dad always wants to know where I am, and what time I’m going to be home.”

Most parents do that. Do they have to know everything? They should give us more freedom. Young people further complain that their parents do not respect them. When something goes wrong, more parents just don't believe in their children. Without asking why, they think their kids are wrong. And not many parents allow their kids to choose for themselves. Yes, it is true that your parents sometimes treat you like a little child. But remember that not too long ago you were really a child. Your parents still remember those childish mistakes that you used to make. They want to protect you though you do not want them to do so.

So, if you want to get more freedom, please try to understand your parents and do not lie to them. Try a more friendly way. If you want them to allow you to stay out late, don't just say, “All the other kids can stay out late.” Tell them as much as you can about what you want to do and where you'll be and why it's important for you to stay out late. Then they might just say “yes”.

Xiao Er dong is a boy who loves marathons（马拉松）. He dreams of being a world-class runner. But his father doesn’t agree with this. Xiao practices running in secret. But one day, when his father runs a marathon himself, he finally understands his son. They run the race together! This is the story of On Your Mark（了不起的老爸）. The movie will come out on June l8 to celebrate Father’s Day, which falls on June 20.

Some say that a father’s love is as strong as a mountain. Fathers are said to be more silent and strict than mothers. Some might even seem like they don’t know how to show their love. But they still play an important role in their children’s growth.

Studies show that children’s behavior has a close relationship with their fathers. Children who have good relationships with their fathers behave better. They tend to be more independent, confident and brave. When fathers are absent, children are more likely to feel worried, drop out of school and have bad relationships.

Recently, more and more people try to express their love for fathers on Father’s Day. How was Father’s Day born? A woman from the US named Sonora Smart Dodd came up with the idea for Father’s Day. Her father, Henry Jackson Smart, brought up six kids, including Sonora after her mother died. Sonora wanted him to know how special he was to her. One day in 1909, she went to a Mother’s Day activity and got the idea. Her father was born in June, so she chose that month to celebrate the new holiday.
