Mom's advice is often perceived as something irrelevant and unnecessary. And only over the years comes the understanding that the parents were right.
So, it's hard to admit, but Mom was right that:
1. These friends are bad for you.
In adolescence, the desire to occupy a certain social position in peer society and to be part of a team overshadows everything, even if the "friends" are obviously not being friendly. And only over the years, everything falls into place: these people manipulated, published, but were not friends. Not all, of course, but there were some.
2. This guy is not worth your time
It is completely useless to dissuade a teenager in love from a romantic relationship with the object of feelings. Even if that object has shown itself to be ugly and unworthy 100 times, set it up, chickened out, deceived, etc. Only time will put everything in its place. And the parents really knew better from the height of experience.
3. No need to get into fights
At a certain stage of growing up and in a certain team, it may seem that a fight is cool, it is a manifestation of strength and character. In fact, this is just injury and a direct road to the world of criminal cases. But behind bars and in correctional facilities, everything will not be so romantic.
4. You need to eat regularly and healthy food
Each child, probably, secretly from the mother bought all sorts of harmfulness instead of eating carefully prepared soup. And then he had gastritis and other "joys". And, you must admit, only with age do you understand the value of coming to your mother for a homemade dinner and eating a plate of that very hot, delicious and very healthy soup.5. No need to reveal your soul and "dirty laundry" to everyone
For more than 10 years, social networks have encouraged teenagers to post absolutely everything about their lives there. Including things that you shouldn't tell anyone. Provocative photographs and texts, stories about their "exploits" in the romantic sphere or "adulthood". For all this, then you will have to blush pretty much.
