As an adolescent, it is very normal to hear from loved one’s certain expectations or
demands which come as either simple or complicated. Write inside the boxes specific
expectations you hear from them.

to not be able to criticize grade like your cousins. because they always say
you. that arte lang.
Choose two (2) possible problems you listed as major challenges and think of possible
solutions to these. Write your solutions inside the box.
Problem 1: You must always be perfect in order for others to not be able to criticize
you.
Solution: This is the reality when it comes to the family that you always need to be
perfect so that other people will not criticize you. They always concerned on what
other people will say and think about you. We need to change this kind of perspective
because we don’t need to prove anything to other people in order for them to think
positively of us.
Problem 2: You have to be an honor student and have a high grade like your cousins.
Solution: Don’t pressure your child to get some high grades because it’s hard to them
to prove even though they already did their best. I think you need to support them and
check them, so that they will continue to pursue their goal to get the high grades that
their parents want to them. And stop comparing your child to others.
