Problem No 10 - Parents keep telling their teenagers what to do and not what to do

...instead of letting them try to figure it out for themselves.

Here's a quote from the TV series, "In Plain Sight" Season 2 Episode 11 (Jailbait):

Eve walks around the Garden of Eden - happy as can be... not even thinking about apples

Then, one day God says
"Oh, by the way, everything here is for you... enjoy, frolic, eat but whatever you do, stay away from the apples."

Next thing you know, all Eve can think about is those juicy red apples.
