It all depends on the teen. However, almost all teens want their parents to understand them and what they are going through. If you mean gifts, it depends on the teen. If you just mean generally, to be understood, for their parents to make an effort with them, a little more freedom, respect, and less questions asked. But don't give your teen to much leash, the more leash the more responsibility. And if the kid is 14 and doesn't have cell yet, get them one. It will be EXTREMELY helpful to you and the child. Ask the teen you are referring to as well, you can't get a better answer than from the teens themselves.

Personally, I am a teenager and I know that although I wish my mom understood me more and talked to me more, I don't feel comfortable talking to her because she didn't talk to me as much when I was little. So, if your teen is close to you, go ahead and just ask them what they want. If you are not close to them, try e-mailing a friend and have them sworn to secrecy. Then, if the friend stays quiet, your teen will think your cool for getting cool gifts. If the friend has a big mouth, then the teen will probably laugh and make fun of you with his/her friends, but really be kind of grateful that they try so hard!

Why teens don't read?

As a teen, I can answer this question with first-hand knowledge. Teens do read, just not as often as we used to when we were younger. Teens also are scared to be seen sometimes reading a certain book because teens WILL judge you if you aren't reading what you should be in that grade. And many teens prefer reading magazines over books. And we're BUSIER! I will admit that we do read less than expected, but it's not that we "don't read."
