W: Hi John, did you get many respondents to your survey on teenagers?
M: Yes, I had a huge number of responses, which was great. I had a quick look at the results last night. It was quite surprising because over half of the teenagers we spoke to said they actually had a good relationship with their parents. I was expecting it to be a lot less than that. I mean the popular myth is that very few teenagers are happy at home.
W: Clearly that’s not true, is it?
Q: Looking at the survey results, why was the man surprised?
