Kirk Martin: 当青少年抱怨父母过于控制时，首先要理解他们的感受。他们正经历着人生的第一次恋爱，荷尔蒙激增，渴望被喜欢和被需要。父母应该尝试走进孩子的世界，了解他们喜欢对方的原因，而不是一味地否定和说教。同时，父母也需要坚持合理的底线，比如限制晚上使用手机的时间，但要以一种理解和支持的态度来沟通，而不是激化矛盾。我可以列出所有我为孩子提供的支持，让他们明白自己还未完全独立，以此让他们认识到父母的付出。最重要的是，父母要帮助孩子建立自信，找到自己的价值和目标，而不是仅仅关注学业和行为规范。我可以和孩子进行深入的交流，让他们明白父母的期望和底线，同时也要给予他们更多的自主权和信任，帮助他们更好地成长。
