Also, talk to them openly and honestly. At times when you’ll be late or away, let them know what you have planned. Check in with them often to let them know how things are going at work or school, in your relationships, with friends, and in your social life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Spend more time with your parents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Spending quality time is the key to maintaining a good relationship. With that in mind, try to schedule at least one meal or activity with them each week. Even if it’s just going out for coffee or watching a movie together, these small moments can help strengthen your bond.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Other than that, do not forget to start meaningful conversations and listen when they share stories from their past. Though taking your parents for granted is easy, expressing gratitude for them can also make a big difference.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Send a heartfelt card or letter telling them why you’re thankful for them. Your words of appreciation will make them feel loved and valued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Listen to what your parents say<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Remember, be receptive to hearing things you may not want to hear. They want the best for you, so try not to get defensive if they bring up something unpleasant.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, put their advice into action. When they offer guidance, ponder their suggestions and see if they are worth implementing in your life. They will notice your efforts, and it will strengthen your bond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
