My name is Sarah. I spent every holiday helping my mum look after my brothers and sisters in the past, so I found myself a job as a nanny(保姆), looking after two little girls.
The problems began when I agreed to live in their home. I was getting more and more tired because I had too many late nights and early mornings with the little ones. One Sunday morning, I was in the park with them. I met a girl called Megan. We used to go to the same school. We talked about what we were doing. I told her how I loved the kids but hated the job.
"If you want to work with children, you can choose to work in a nursery school (幼儿园). You should take a course and get a qualification(资历) first," she said.
I wasn't confident of my ability, but she persuaded(劝说) me to call the local college. To my surprise, the college was really helpful. Soon I took a course on education and got a part - time job in a restaurant. Three years later, I passed all the exams and got a qualification. Megan has changed my life. She helped me see my values.
Now I work in a nursery school. I enjoy my job. And I am proud of myself.

How often do you hear people saying that the relationship between their parents and them is not as good as it used to be? Now let's see what you can do to get along well with your parents.
As a teenager, you should respect your parents and be thankful for what they did for you. If your parents don't allow you to do something, do not go out of the way to do it. There must be a good reason why they feel you should not do that thing. Do not be angry with it or fight with them. Talk to them and explain your opinion to them. As you enter your mid - teens, you will realise you want to be independent(独立的). This change is going to bring conflicts(矛盾) between you and your parents. You will feel that your parents are too controlling. To avoid further conflicts, talk to them and listen to their opinions.

When you grow older and become an adult, you will be independent. That can put a distance(距离) between you and your parents. In this situation, listening to each other and understanding each other are necessary to build a healthy relationship between you and your parents. Since you are an adult, the parent - child relationship develops into a relationship between adults. However, some things never change. You will always be their kid, no matter how old you are. So look on your parents as friends.
