peer pressure
The term “at risk youth” applies to almost every teen growing up today. Teens in affluent neighborhoods, middle class neighborhoods and poor neighborhoods all face some of the same challenges growing up. The parent today who believes their youth isn’t exposed to drugs and alcohol, teen violence, and sex is a naive parent. Throw into the mix that teen depression, ADHD and other disorders are on the rise and both parents and youth are facing unique and difficult challenges.
