We have always heard that children come of age, but why am I saying parents come of age? In fact, when our children come of age, changes in their behavior, speech, and appearance all happen to them. They come of age, not a parent...! If so, why is the time when children come of age stressful for parents too? Why did our child, who seemed to be a child until yesterday, suddenly have to change so much before he knew anything? Who doesn't listen to anything anymore, doesn't come with us anywhere, is constantly enjoying themselves or with friends and mobile phones...? Doesn't all this upset parents?? That is why this is the time for parents to get along with children as their friends. How can we convey to them the struggle we are having to understand the children and the care we feel for them?

When it comes to their children, couples frequently differ in a few areas such as studying, going out with friends, spending money,...
In two stages, children become aware of their individuality. At the beginning of their third or fourth year, when they take their first steps away from their parents (especially their mothers), grandparents, or other caregivers. When they start kindergarten and play with other kids their age. They start to see people, like their teachers and friends, other than the people they have lived with so far. This is where they start to learn how to live with other people. But they still have to depend on their parents or other caregivers for everything. This is the first time they have expressed a desire to go outside. The second stage is adolescence, when their image (self-image) is formed in different ways, such as in their finances, social lives, sexual lives, mental lives, and intellectual lives. They try to find out how they will become significant in this world and whether they can survive without their parents. From this point on, the desire to leave home and see the outside world beg...
