Oakley: 应对焦虑,接受焦虑是生活的一部分,不要抗拒。在大学申请过程中,要保持积极心态,不要认为结果决定一切。要享受当下,珍惜高中最后时光。父母应该理解孩子在大学申请期间的压力,给予适当的空间。与前任保持朋友关系需要时间和空间,关系不会和恋爱时一样。成年后的兄弟姐妹关系,保持联系,让对方知道你随时可以倾听。建立家庭群聊,可以轻松保持联系,分享生活点滴。青少年玩游戏时间过长,可能是因为游戏是他们擅长且能与朋友互动的方式。自信并非天生的,可以通过行动和积极的社交来培养。大学里的霸凌事件应该及时向父母寻求帮助,不要独自承受压力。困境总会过去,要相信生活会好转。应对焦虑,要成为他人的依靠,给予支持和陪伴。应对焦虑的方法:深呼吸,冥想,联想积极的人和事。 Mel: 父母应该设定界限,以保持开放沟通和尊重,同时确保孩子的安全。父母在处理孩子饮酒问题时,应该注重开放沟通、信任和安全,而不是控制。分手时,要以自身感受为重,不要过度担心对方感受。自信是通过行动建立的,而不是空想。青少年长时间待在房间里,可能是因为使用手机,不必过度担心,但应关注其生活状态。
