Family conflicts are an inherent part of human relationships, stemming from the diverse personalities, perspectives, and dynamics within a family unit. These conflicts can arise due to various factors, including differences in values, communication styles, and expectations. One common source of family conflict is different values and beliefs. Each family member may have their own set of values and principles, influenced by their upbringing, personal experiences, and social influences. These differences can lead to disagreements, particularly when it comes to important decisions or lifestyle choices. Communication breakdowns also contribute to family conflicts. Ineffective communication, whether it be through misinterpretation, misunderstandings, or lack of active listening, can exacerbate tensions and escalate conflicts within the family. Different communication styles and approaches further complicate matters, as individuals may have varying preferences for directness, assertiveness, or emotional expression. Moreover, unfulfilled expectations often become a source of conflict within families. Each family member may have their own set of expectations regarding roles, responsibilities, and behaviours. When these expectations are not met, it can lead to disappointment, resentment, and conflicts. Resolving family conflicts requires open and honest communication and empathy. Active listening, seeking to understand others’ perspectives, and finding common ground can help bridge the gaps and foster understanding within the family unit. Family members should also be willing to adapt and adjust their expectations for peaceful coexistence. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?

A. Reasons for Family Conflicts

C. How to Avoid Family Conflicts

All over the country young people are entering a world of homelessness and poverty, according to a recent report by the housing group, Shelter. Nearly 150,000 young people aged between sixteen and twenty-five will become homeless this year, says Shelter. Some of the young homeless may sleep out in the open in such places as 'cardboard city' in London, where people of all ages sleep in the open air in their only homes - cardboard boxes. Others may find accommodation in shelters run by voluntary organizations or get a place in a hostel, which gives them board for up to ten weeks.’ But who are these people? Those who are seeking a roof over their heads are mostly not runaways but “throwaways” - people who have been thrown out of their homes or forced to leave because of parental divorce, an unsympathetic step-parent or one of many other reasons. Take the case of one sixteen-year-old schoolgirl, Alice. She did not come from a poor home and had just passed her exams with good results. The Shelter team met her in a hostel where she was doing her physics homework. It turned out that her parents had thrown her out of her home for no other reason that she wanted to do Science Advanced Level exams - which her parents refused her permission to do, saying that sciences were unladylike! Shelter says that the Government's laws do nothing to help these youngsters. Rising rents, the shortage of cheap housing and a cut in benefits for young people under the age of twenty-five are causing a national problem, according to Shelter. The recent changes in the benefit laws mean that someone aged between sixteen and twenty-five gets less than older people and they can only claim state help if they prove that they left home for a good reason. Shelter believes that because of the major cuts in benefits to young people, more and more are being forced to sleep on the streets. Shelter also points out that if you are homeless, you can't get a job because employers will not hire someone without a permanent address; and if you can't get a job, you are homeless because you don't have any money to pay for accommodation. It's an impossible situation. Why was Alice turned out of her home?

D. Her parents didn’t argee with what she wanted to do.

A. She refused to do her homework in the evening.

B. She didn’t want to study for her Advanced Level Exams.

C. She had not obtained desirable marks in her exams.
