    　　Beth Marinelli is 29 years old, 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighs about 350 pounds．She is not always able to fit herself into theater or restaurant seats, or into train or airplane seats．She has to go to specialty(特制品)stores to buy clothes．All of this makes Beth Marinelli very angry．But what angers her most is New Jersey’s mandatory(强制性的)seat belt law．

    　　New Jersey drivers and front seat passengers are required by law to wear seat belts．The problem for Beth Marinelli is that car makers don’t make seat belts large enough for obese people．As a result, people with weight problems are not required to buckle up(扣上安全带)like everybody else．“Statistics(统计数字)show how much safer it is to be in an accident while wearing a seat belt, says Marinelli．“The lawmakers are saying that if you’re fat, you can be free from wearing a seat belt－that it’s OK to die in a car accident．”

    　　Social discrimination against the very fat people is very strong．According to Marinelli, she left high school because of constant teasing about her weight．But the cruel jokes and comments didn’t end with her youth．She was forced to work as a cook at her brother’s fast food restaurant because her weight ?discourages? employers from hiring her．

    　　One day Marinelli wants to write a book about her life．She’ll call it “Growing Up Fat in America．”She wants to warn young people who are overweight about what’s in store for them, and encourage them to lose weight．“If one 10-year-old fat kid listens to me and says,’I don’t want to go through that,’ then I’ve succeeded．”

       The majority of parents and children experience some tension with one another The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families. But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents, which is the opposite of the popularly held image of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.

       An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past. “We were surprised by just how positive today’s young people seem to be about their families,” said one member of the research team. “They’re expected to show rebellion(叛逆) and selfishness but actually they have other things on their minds; they want a car and material goods, and they worry about whether school is serving them well. There’s more negotiation (商议) and discussion between parents and children, and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process. They don’t want to rock the boat.”

       So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of 30 years ago to treat their children as friends. “My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,” says 17-years-old Daniel Lazall. “I always tell them when I’m going out clubbing. As long as they know what I’m doing, they’re fine with it.” Susan Crome, who is now 21, agrees. “Looking back on the last 10 years, there was a lot of what you could call negotiation. For example, as long as I’d done all my homework, I could go out on a Saturday night. But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that.”

       Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected. It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts. A researcher comments, “Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings. But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the 1960s when everyone rebelled. The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to taking it over.”
