Listen to Linda Cupple, a social worker, advises young people on how to the telephone in their family, then fill in the blanks
The telephone, as you know, is a 1.________ instrument, but it may cause 2.________ between you and your parents – arguments that could be easily avoided if you would sit down, talk it over, and agree to a few 3.______________.
The most obvious problem, of course, is what everyone considers a reasonable length of time for a call. The exact duration must be worked out with your parents, but ten minutes should be an absolute 4._______. That’s certainly long enough to say almost anything in five different ways, and yet it isn’t so long that other members of the family will become angry. Even when your parents are out, 5._______ of your call should be limited, because they, or someone else, may be trying to reach your home for a very important reason.

Listen to Linda Cupple, a social worker, advises young people on how to the telephone in their family, then fill in the blanks
Calling hours should be 6.______ upon. If your parents object to your leaving the dinner table to take calls, tell your friends 7._______ calling at that hour; if someone does phone, ask him to call back, or offer to call him when dinner’s over.
A serious calling problem is calling very late at night, or very early in the morning. This 8.________ mistake is made mostly by young people who consider 10 or 11 p.m., when a lot of tired 9._____ are happily sleeping, the shank of the evening. So please tell your friends not to call after ten o’clock. The shock of 10.______ out of a sound sleep and the fright of that instant thought – “There’s an accident” - are enough to give your parents a 11._____attack. Weekend morning calls aren’t startling, but it’s the one time your parents can sleep late.
If your mother and father, out of 12.________, have installed a separate phone for you, remember that you’re still a member of a family. So try to 13.______ your family’s regulations.
