Work these days demands huge amount of time and taking a day off could just leave you jobless. Under such grave circumstances sharing quality time with children and family has become difficult.

Separation and divorce and the events that follow them, interrupt the stableness and mental state of the children terribly. These are events that are not sudden. They are caused as a long stretched undue disturbed relationship.

Teen's drug addiction can be caused by diverse factors like poor educational performance, difficulties in relations, misunderstandings with parents, violence in class or at home.

Teenage parenting has always been particularly trying job for parents. Teenagers at this age get totally disassociated from their parents, the reason may be due to the generation gap or long working hours of parents these days.

All boys need boundaries to help them control and manage their behavior and to fit into a family or school framework of rules. Boundaries and rules help to keep boys safe, to fit in with and be acceptable to others, to show that you care about what happens to them and get you involved in their world.

For some boys, living in the shadow of a brother or sister is a nightmare that stays with him for the rest of his life. He can never quite shake off the humiliation and feeling of inferiority. Comments like: 'Your brother would not have produced work like that' or 'You're not as talented as your sister' can ruin pride and kill ambition. Friends, too, can be used (or rather abused) as a model for him to measure up to, in questions like: 'Why can't you do as well as Jonathan?' But far from acting as a spur, adults who suffered these taunts as children say their childhood was tainted by them.
