What do students wish parents understood about them?

Students often withdraw from conversations, not out of indifference, but due to mental fatigue from constant scrutiny and conflicting expectations. They fear disappointing parents and often need time to process their feelings rather than immediate solutions. Acknowledging their need for space to be uncertain and tired fosters trust and encourages sharing.
