Working parents feel that they are not giving their
children enough care. They think that their children feel 1 and 2 to spend more time with them.
Scientists in some colleges have found that working
parents believed that they knew 3 their children,
but 4 had ever asked their children what they thought. So
scientists interviewed (采访) over 1,000 children of working mothers or
fathers to 5 what
they wanted. They asked the children 6 they wanted their parents to stay 7 and some 8 questions.After they
collected the answers, it was 9 that only 10% of the
children in their study said that they wanted more time with their parents. _10_,
the children who were interviewed said they wanted their parents to give more
11 to them. They said that their parents were as 12
as a bee. When they were asked about what they 13 most,
a large number of the children said that they wanted to feel important
and 14 .
So parents should know what their children really want
and how to get along 15 with them.
