Teenagers and Motivational Problems
Even in times like these, where the United States is facing many different sorts of problems, most citizens of this country are far better off than most people in third world countries. Many teenagers feel more and more entitled, not realizing that it takes work to be good at something. Parents should be aware what their students are up to, and adolescents who make no attempts to try at anything often end up involved in negative behaviors, such as drug abuse.
Even though teenagers face many problems that parents didn’t face when they were in high school, the state of the world at this moment is no excuse to have no motivation. It’s never simple to help troubled teens who are facing problems like lack of motivation, but parents need to be involved in the lives of their students in every way. Hard work, ambition, and a drive for something better often is the best sort of therapy for troubled teens.
