They hope that by studying the aging medical science they may be able to make the length of life longer.__5__ Many consider the later part of life to be the best time for living.Physical activity may become less，but often we get better understanding of the world and ourselves.

It’s more likely it is out of a real inability to determine what’s best for him.·__3__Tell your teen you understand his decisions while simply emphasizing that you don’t have to agree with his decisions or treat his views as v alid.By not judging his opinions，tastes or style，you are opening the road to better communication and problem－solving opportunities.·Set clear expectations.__4__ For example，if your teen refuses to study for his math final because “math is pointless”，explain that you expect him to perform well in school，even in the “pointless ” classes.Because you’ve already tolerated his opinion without trying to change his viewpoint，you two can easily agree that math isn’t so useful，yet avoid saying “Let’s just give up on math，then.”·Find a middle ground.Trade insignificant freedoms，such as clothing style for the promise that he’ll live up to academic and family responsibilities.__5__ Not only does giving up a bit of control solve many conflicts，but the extra freedom you give him can also improve his decision－making.A．Show tolerance.B．Learn to solve problems.C．Point out your expectations and his responsibilities.D．If your teen could realize it，allow him to be himself.E．A responsible adolescent must have role models to learn from.
