Working parents are dividing their attention between their career and their adolescent, and in many cases the one that suffers is the adolescent. A working parent is prone to become over-worked, stressed out and chronically tired. This all leads to a lack of focus on their home-life.

According to Belle, "Millions of school-age children in the United States get out of school each day before their parents get home from work.What these children do in these hours of solitude may be unbeknownst to their parents. Some participate in after school programs, some are looked after by others, but many are by themselves."

In response of Belle's statement,Shellenberger concluded that "it is this relationship between working parents and their children that may ultimately lead to struggling, troubled teens."

Due to their heavy work, they tend to neglect their children problems and strange attitudes. Parents seem to have the feeling that once their child is old enough to stay home alone by themselves, they are then grown and the parents work is done.

In solution, Gardner cited that "Parents are realizing that their adolescent children need more supervision than they had been previously receiving. This may mean coming home from work earlier or creating special meeting times to talk. "

In addition, who says that chilren of working parents need more family time? Its actually depends on how the parents use those little faily time. No matter how busy the parents are, there must be 3 seconds when parents and children can exchange hugs. Actually, when children has working parents, they tend to cherish those little of family time more than those children whose mother or father is unemployed.

Therefore, in conclusion, the way the children suffer depends on how the parents act. Loving their children doesn't mean 24 hour supervision on that child. It means you really have tos how them that you love and cared for them. By giving these children signs of support and love through 3 seconds heart or 5 seconds saying 'I-Love-You' does a great change. By helding a 10-minutes talk every evening to know what your children did on that day and regular meeting and outings during work holidays and day-offs are also another form of accompanying your children.
