My child is 15 years old and has completely changed in last 10 months. He used to be very simple and innocent. But now I have started noticing a sudden change in his behavior and activities. He has got a tattoo on his arms and started keeping pointed things in his pocket. Some of his friends told me that he is the leader of his gang in school. When I asked him about this, he started shouting and don’t want any parental interference in his life. Please suggest something to this helpless father.

I know these situations are difficult to deal with. However, don’t get afraid. There are various help options available for such teens. Take an experts advice or help from counselor, they’ll definitely guide you with something good for your child. Also you can search for different boarding schools and treatment centers for him.

My first suggestion to you is to have a healthy relationship with your child. Know about his friends circle and keep a check on his activities. Talk to him freely and of course politely about his gang involvement. If the things still don’t get normal, then take help from some professional.

In this age, teens often fall in bad habits. They believe in showoff and fashion. This is the common problem. They do not obey their parents and do all things in their own style. Your teen is also in one of them. You have to know that his friend circle is good or bad. His bad company can affect his career also. First you have to talk about it to your son.

This is a common problem suffered by most of the families. To day the world is changing day by day and all it is showed in the form of movies. I think movies are the main cause for these strange behaviors. Children want to imitate like there favorite hero’s by changing their way of dressing, hair style, and even walking style too. So as a responsible parent we have to take of our children by keeping special attention on their activities and find out the source of the problem.

It would be difficult when we see our children behaving against us. So at this time we must take more care and think an appropriate solution. In my view for time being he must joined in a short term troubled teen school. So that he would know how to behave with the parents and in society.
