Dilshod: 
the reason why i argue with my parents is that they always think they 
know what’s best for me, and never listen to my point of view. We 
argue about things like what time I must come home in the evenings, 
how much homework I should do, what clothes I wear, even my 
hairstyle. i wish i could do what i want! i think they don’t want me to 
grow up, that’s why they still treat me like a child. 
mirzohid: 
I think the biggest problem most teenagers have is peer pressure. 
There are people at school who will pick on you if you dress or behave 
differently from them. Some of them will even laugh at you if you don’t 
like the music they like. if teenagers didn’t put pressure on each other 
it would be easier to live.
Dilnoza: 
Most of my friends complain about their parents, but I get on fine 
with mine. they do make some rules, for example about where i can 
and can’t go on Friday and Saturday evenings, but at least we can 
discuss things – they have the final say, but they always listen to 
my opinion first. They give some independence. Maybe if I weren’t 
the youngest in the family they wouldn’t. My brothers and sisters say 
Mum and Dad were stricter with them when they were at my age!
