A Letter from Li Hua Dear Mike, I am feeling unhappy these days. I am writing to ask you for help. Relations between my parents and me become very difficult. I think they push me too hard. They are always complaining about my study. They say I spend too much time playing on the phone. But I am tired after a whole day's course. I just want to relax myself a bit by watching funny videos. What can I do? Yours, Li Hua. |
Li Hua is not alone. There are some students like him. According to a survey about Li Hua and his classmates, students have four main problems when they are homeschooled. First, 30% of the students have problems getting along with their family. Second, 25% of the students have difficulties managing their time. And 28% find it hard to full themselves together to work on their subjects. Last but not least, 33% are dependent on playing online games or watching videos.
However, there is always a solution to a problem. Take communication problem for example. Huang Li has discovered a new way to understand her mom. "Don't keep your eyes on your phone for a long time" is actually saying "I am worried about your eyes"; "Have you finished your homework?" means "I hope you can be your own master in study." Huang Li says our parents love us. If we can really get the true meaning of what they say, we won't find it so hard to listen to them.

I have a lot of problems recently. Firstly, I'm not happy in class. I'm so shy that I'm afraid of speaking in class. Secondly, I argued with my best friend. I'm very worried because I have few friends. I don't want to lose her. Thirdly, I feel nervous when the midterm exams are coming. And sometimes I even can't sleep well at night.
Yesterday, my mother took me to the doctor. I told the doctor my problems and he gave me some suggestions. He asked me to make more friendly friends and play games in my free time, so that I will not be so shy. He also said, “If you don't want to lose your best friend, you should talk with her. Tell her what you think. ”Because I can't sleep well, he asked me to eat some food that is good for sleep. And he asked me to relax. I'm trying to follow his advice. I think I will get better soon.
