It's good for my, it's good for me. For another thing, I can improve my independent ability. For example, if my parents set a time that I need back to home, and I can persuade them and choose my own time to back to home, it can foster my independent ability, and it's good for my future in society.
Revised:
When my friends or family and I disagree on controversial issues, I believe it is important to try to persuade them. Firstly, doing so encourages independent thinking. For instance, when selecting a college, if my mother and I have differing opinions, persuading her to consider my choice based on my abilities can lead to a more fulfilling college experience for me. Secondly, engaging in such discussions can improve one's independence. For example, if my parents set a curfew for me, persuading them to allow me to choose my own time to return home can foster my sense of responsibility and independence, which will be beneficial for my future in society.
