Teens seem to be changing from generation. Nowadays teens are very different from what past generatiins were. Their interests and likes are very different, they tend to be more independent and capable of doing anything by their own.
If they are who they are is all thanks to society. These teenagers, this generation, were raised under different rules and life style, that makes them feel more free in front of life.
But not everything is happiness and rainbows... suicide is still a tabu topic, specially when it is related to teenagers. Why do teenagers suicide?.... most of them is because they have personal issues that lead them to not want to live anymore, but I guess that happens with everyone who does not want to be here!.
Peer presure, bullying, domestic violence, money problems, etc., are some of the most common factors that affect a teenager. Being in top of them does not work either....
What do we have to do? As future parents and teachers, we have to make sure our children feel safe, comfortable whenever they are, we have to let them know everything is possible and when they feel something can not be fixed, they must talk to someone who can help them... they should not be left alone specially at the teenage stage of their lives, where they are constantly changing (physical and emotionally).
