Child/ Adult Conflict

I believe conflict between a child and their parent arises when he/she becomes a teenager, because the teen starts to believe that they can make more decisions for themselves now that their older and for most parents this is hard. Some parents are not ready to realize that their child is growing up and that they should let them be free, so they tend to keep a hold and may not let them do as much as the teen may believe that they should be able to do. For me this began to happen my 7th grade year because all of my friends were allowed to go to this one skating rink that had a teen club attached and my parents would never let me go so that created a conflict, but as I got older I have started to realize how much I miss being that young again.
