Let’s say you and your parents have healthy conversations, that if there is any disagreement between the two parties, it is solved with proper communication. Your parents are strict but have valid reasons to be so, and make you aware of them without being angry or defensive. Say for example, it’s summer and you’re going out to the beach, you’re all ready and dressed up and are about to leave through the door, and your mother calls you out. You’re wearing shorts and a sleeveless crop-top. Your mother asks you to change and wear something that covers your skin a little bit more, you get easily offended by that and your about start a fight she recognizes the anger in your behavior and rather saying anything, she pulls out her phone and opens gallery, she clicks on this one picture of her and her friends on the beach, only last week where she herself is wearing a top sleeveless herself, she swipes to the next photo of them going to a restaurant later, she zooms into herself, and says, “ see this?” You see your mom’s back in the photo and her shoulders are all
pinkish-red. You know we have a similar type of skin, right? She asks you. Your anger settles down. “At least put on a decent sunscreen and keep a scarf with you” she says.
