Parents' Wrath              It is a common sense that everything happens for a reason. If there is a cause, there should also be what it causes afterwards. In our everyday lives, especially in our family environment, all sorts happenings have their own causes. When parents are angry, children usually tend to think that they are angry with no reason. However, in such case, there is also definite causes for parents' wrath followed by consequences.              To begin with, there are financial causes for parents' anger. When children spend a huge sum of money on unnecessary costs such as eating luxurious food or purchasing expensive fashion items, parents become frustrated. Especially if the family belongs to a low-income family where a majority amount of income is spent on food, children's huge spending worsens the problem. Then, the effect will be reduction in allowances and the children will have to suffer the pain of budget cuts.              Also, there are behavioral factors that causes parents to be angry and upset. Parents' number one priority is undoubtedly their children. Their safety and well-beings are the parents' most important matters. However, if the children fail to ease their parents, they will soon be upset. For instance, if the children come home late after playing games with their friends or drinking, their mother and father will of course be upset, not even knowing the reasons. It is because regardless of the reason, parents are concerned that something may have happened to their kids. The consequences may be setting up curfews especially for girls or grounding if worse to teach the children a lesson.              Furthermore, a prevalent cause especially within Korea is related to employment. Many parents are worried that their kids will not be able to a get a job or one that is stable and has a high rate of payment. Since within Korean society, early preparation as early as from elementary school, is considered necessary for a decent career, parents are anxious about their children's future. For example, if their children do not get a good grade in their college, the parents become frustrated. They rebuke their kids even though they are already full-grown adults. The effect of such is that children become more dependent on their parents after they become adults, relying on them more frequently.              It is unreasonable to claim that parents are always angry and upset without any reasons. There are clear causes for their frustration and the children ought to know them beforehand. The causes are related to financial reasons, behavioral aspects and career factors' each of them are followed by consequences or effects. By becoming aware of these causes, the children can be more careful with their behaviors not to upset their parents but rather make them proud.
