parent, but ends up being seen
as too strict and controlling by
her daughter. Even though she
puts in a lot of effort, her
daughter still acts irresponsibly.

things differently and improve

the only one who truly gets
her.

room and just rolls her eyes

out boys.

hardships like loss, sorrow, and anger. She
also wants to emphasize to her daughter
that the choices she makes now will
shape her future.

daughter they're not just friends
because she's older and in charge,
providing everything she needs. So,

need clear rules for their kids and
must face challenges head-on,
without running away.

do, it's a valuable lesson. At home, the
mom is like the boss and teacher. For
example, if a parent asks their child to
cook rice, the child learns. They might
need help at first, but they'll figure it
out. Then, the next time, they can do it
easily. So, the parent is preparing the
child for the future by asking them to
do things.
The mom taught her daughter that while
friendship is valuable, there will come a
time when they'll have their own families
and responsibilities. So, instead of relying
solely on friendship, her daughter should

spends a lot of time on social media,

behavior doesn't suggest that
direction.
