The survey showed that the top choice for both parents and teens was to go out for a family meal. This is
ideal for those who don't have much time to spare because the occasion can be made to feel special while the
whole family can stay together for a couple of hours or less. Make sure that everyone has a say in where they'd
like to eat. In case you don't go to one person's suggested restaurant this time then avoid disputes by suggesting
you to there another day.
The second favorite choice for spending quality time was to go on a family holiday. This can be one of the
most effective ways to engage with your teen in a fun and relaxing setting away from the distractions (使人分
心的事) of normal daily life. What's more, you'll return home with shared memories to cherish forever.
If you're looking for something slightly less expensive and time-consuming than a holiday, plan a day trip
instead. Day trips were considered by more teenagers than parents. in the survey as a good way to spend quality
time. Unsurprisingly, more teens than parents also said that they'd like to go to a theme park. But if the thought
of roller coasters and long queues leaves you feeling uncomfortable, perhaps consider a day out to another town
or city, going shopping or catching a movie at the cinema instead.
If you've got a sporty teen, try taking part in physical activity with him. Whatever it takes to get your blood
pumping, having fun will be well worth it. Although if you're rather athletically challenged, try something a bit
more sedate, like bowling (保龄球). Also, energetic and curious teens often enjoy outdoor activities, such as
camping, so why not put yourself to the challenge and see where the spirit of adventure takes you both?
But don't worry if the thought of such exertion (努力) makes either of you break out in a cold sweat. Time
spent one-on-one at home just enjoying each other's company can be equally-if not more-valuable as any other.
