单选题 .  It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstandings between them. They have always complained, more or     1    justly, that their parents are out of touch     2    modern ways; that they are possessive and dominant;     3    they do not trust their children to deal with crises; that they     4    too much about certain problems—and that they have no     5    of humor, at least in parent-child relationships.

It is natural enough after long years of childhood,     19    you were completely under your parents' control. But it     20    the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. So if you plan to control your life, cooperation can be part of that plan.1.
