Why? because we are afraid that instead of getting the help we want we will just get in trouble and grounded. I know parents always say that their kids could come to them about everything, but most kids don't because what they want to tell their parents will make them angry and get the kid grounded. If you are a parent you are probably think that you wouldn't do that, but if your kid came to you saying that they have been drinking a lot and smoking weed, I don't know about you, but most parents would flip. Not only that but we want to have independence and almost show the that we are responsible enough to live our own lives (even though we know we aren't). It might be hard to admit, bu tmost likely teens will never come to parents if they were in "trouble" unless it was SUPER bad or would not get them in trouble

I am sorry that this the case! Some parents live in fear of what can happen to their kids. There are parents too that just don't know how to communicate on their child's level simply because some of the issues they have never themselves faced! Some of us often forget that we too were once kids and just aren't accepting of the fact that we are not always right! I am so thankful that my rule was this: Come to me first with anything at all, and if I don't know , we will find the answers together.

Hello! teen here! I know exactly the situation you are talking about because I don't go to my parents when im in trouble!! Why? well... to tell you the truth it feels like I cant!! my parents have never really sat down and had an important talk with me or showed me that its ok to go to them so it feels like i really cant!!! Im not used to talking to them and it feels awkward!!! Another thing that goes on with us is that even if we are close to our parents when something goes wrong it's harder to go to someone that cares about you!!! Think about it is it easier to tell a friend or your mom that your pregnant or that you are addicted to drugs or that somethings bothering you at school? Although parents are not fully to blame i dont think you guys realize that you need to start the little talks EARLY so that later on it DOESN"T feel weird and We CAN go to you! Hope i helped clear up some things!

Eventhough you may get yelled or grounded or get a spanking Its still always best to go and talk about the situation with your parents if you dont it will make them worry even more and you will eventually stress yourself out over the problem or trouble your into ... I always go to my mother about everything and im 19 and she still yells but I know its because shes just concerned but at the end everythings ok because I got it the problem off my shoulders....Its ok to be the bigger person sometimes

teens will learn the negative things quickly and their life will be spoiled as the imprretion of negative things never be thrown out of the brain .they will learn such things for ever .their heart also becomes weak,they can have disability also.now they start hating their life,their point of view towords society will be negative. they may hate people. they dont understand about love,so teensshould not be allowed to see problems.on the other side if a teen is well build ,strong by brain is allowed to participate in solving problem.

You can, the reason they don't is because they know they did something their parents spent so much time teaching them they shouldn't do. They only make it worse by not going to them. Grow a pair and accept that you failed as a child, your parents will be way more understanding if you are mature enough to take the consequences for your actions.

Because they are afraid of their parents' reactions. If their parents are going to flip out or over react then they want to avoid that. If their parents listen then teens will go to their parents when they are in trouble.

They can and should. But teens sometimes don't because they were taught or knew whatever they did was wrong by these same people you call parents. I know because I was a kid once and a parent 4 times.

Probably the biggest thing is , kids hate to disappoint there parents . Most parents have high expectations for there kids .
They want the best for them .
But really , they would rather no , because in the end they'll find things out anyhow .

Because they think that they will get in trouble by their parents. its best that if u think ur parents will get mad at you then go to a close friend or maybe a realtive and confide in them first ask them to keep a secret about ur conversation
