Chico's pointers are worthy!
This is a universal piece that is worth reading for both teens and most of all, adults. It gives the parents an understanding on how exactly teens feel and what they are feeling, what goes through their minds when being yelled at by their parents. It leads the audience or the listeners to put ourselves in teens' shoes; to see exactly how it feels. It is important for parents to not only think of their reasons for yelling but to have an open mind about both positions as well as for Chico admitting that his parents aren't so bad. The voice of Chico is sentimental like the story behind it. Great choice to add the interviews of the parents' opinions also.
Chico takes an interesting approach to a frustration in his life (what his parents tell him to do) by projecting himself into their role (what it will be like when Chico is a parent).
To make his point, he uses rules, humor and interviews with experts, including
his own parents.
The piece is delivered well and easy to track. Chico is also a cool enough guy to admit that his father is right (at least once) and tell his mother - on tape - that he loves her.
Chico, way to bridge the gap with your parents. I hope you turn out to be as good of a parent as you want to be!
PS Keep up the good radio work.
