Anywhere we go, we encounter news about gang violence, theft, out of school youth, young couples, teenage single-parent and such. Nowadays, there are so many cases of rebellious children mostly of ages 13 to 18. There can be many reasons why teenagers neglect and disobey and eventually lose the right track in life. I will be sharing the following reasons because I have seen and witnessed them. It's not me, but my peers and acquaintances who were so unfortunate for not being able to handle life's injustices and difficulties.


Below are my TOP 3 Reasons why Teenagers rebel.


Broken Family

Many people believe that family has great contribution in a person's development of traits and characteristics. Oftentimes, as a child, we tend to imitate the words, actions, gestures , way of speaking and interpreting that our parents or older siblings do. It is commonly known as adaptation or learning. A child raised with a broken family that's always fighting, talking about the father's other women, or the mother's unreasonable attitude, will be likely to keep away the distance from the family and just focus on diversional activities such as going out with friends, partners or even newly-met buddies. In order to catch the family's attention, the child will try to do everything possible, even if it's good or bad, just to feel love and belongingness.

Lack of Attention

Commonly, this attitude can be manifested by the middle child - 2nd Child Syndrome. Because of being in the middle, child feels to be neglected and always second-best. They seek attention from their parents, the same attention that the parents gave to the first-born and the youngest child of the family. Some may engage in stupid activities while others excel in academics or sports. But a big fraction of those who chose to do silly things weren't able to come back and retrieve themselves. Thus, ending up as a violent gang member, theft or a bum.

Abused

I'm disgusted with parents who abuse their children in any way - raped, molested, brutality, exploited, etc. In any part of the world, we may hear about these kinds of child ill-treatment. Having trauma derived from any of the given cruelty, will affect the mentality, perception and adaptation of a child. Some can survive while some others can't. Some just pull out their defense mechanisms superficial and become rebellious and stiff.

There are countless reasons why a child might turn rebel. It is imperative for parents to monitor your child, know what they feel, talk to them often about what's happening to them, how they feel and what their dreams are. It's a way of showing you care for them and that you are always ready to be their guide until they can do it on their own.

There ain't something more momentous and exciting as college graduation - a very special moment that a typical or well known college student has been waiting for. The road to success was not easy, from freshman to senior year. The strife and hardship gives graduation a call for a celebration. For most of us students, and even for our parents, graduation holds a significance that will affect the person we'll become which will make our parents proud.



For most people, this is the final graduation they will ever go through, a rite of passage into the real world. Thus, it is just fitting and proper to reward the successful graduate with a gift that is not only recognition of his achievement but also wish of good luck for the many future plans he is about to undertake and realize.

When a special someone or relative is going to graduate, one of the most important and exciting things we think of is what would be the perfect graduation gift? You can give any gift you want: a new car, jewelry, a trip to a popular destination, techie gadgets, and many more. But picking the perfect gift requires more than just shelling out the bug bucks.

Choosing the best gift involves careful thought and knowledge of what the graduate truly wants or needs. You think of something that the new graduate will use in their new career or new school, whichever is applicable. If you believe that the new graduate is sentimental or loves collectibles, you can also give a sort of memorabilia or souvenir to preserve the memory of the occasion. A graduation gift need not be too expensive. But a prestige gift will definitely be highly appreciated – maybe a new watch, a new camera or a fine jewelry.

Probably the best gifts you can give a college graduate are those which they can use in their new career; perhaps a laptop computer will do. A trip will also be well-regarded since most graduates will certainly need a respite, even if brief, before entering the corporate world.
