What Makes Our Children Do This?

Today it is fashionable to speak about teenage problems. A few years ago alcohol, fights, killings and other kinds of violence were more problems for adults than for young people.

But now, as official reports admit, violence AIDS, drugs and alcohol are more and more associated with youngsters. For many children from poor families violence, drinking problems and all that is associated with poverty becomes more real than reality.

The Government surveys show that every fifth teenager who was arrested for criminal actions, was younger than 14 and could not be sent to prison. Almost half of teenagers have an experience with drugs, and alcohol under age of 16. A lot of teenagers who have drug or alcohol addiction almost never believe that they are dependent. These things are often combined with family and school problems.

What has gone wrong? Some specialists explain that the changes of our society, the system of our life force young people to choose their own lifestyle. On the one hand, our society agrees that 15-17 year-old people are old enough to be responsible for what they do and give them quite a lot of freedom and rights. On the other hand, most adults think that teenagers are too young to be taken seriously. This misunderstanding produces many problems. Actually, a lot of teenagers say that their parents let them do anything they want and are quite indifferent to their problems. Many teenagers get upset or depressed when they can't solve their problems. As a result, it makes them believe that there is only one way out - to stop living and commit suicide.

No doubt, the teen's problems will increase. And young people should feel that they are cared for.

RECOMMENDATIONS OF PSYCHOLOGIST:

• You must be sure your parents love you, care for you. They are interested in your fate and can give you advice.

• Discuss your problems with your parents or people you trust. They can share their experience.

• Don’t treat difficulties as tragedies. There is always a way out of every situation. You should learn to overcome difficulties.

• Respect other people. They are different, but they are not worse than you.

• Don’t be so crazy about your appearance and clothes. Take the problems easy.

• Be optimistic. Do some sport. Find a hobby.

• Problems are the result of the activity of human mind. When people start to cope with different problems they become stronger and more experienced.
