Every girl has a unique set of experiences, talents, relationships, and challenges. It's normal for teenage girls to want to feel independent, but it's not typical if they start acting out in extreme and dangerous ways. Girls are especially known for exploring new things, but they don't make serious changes to their personality out of nowhere. There is always a reason for behavioral changes and it is the parents' responsibility to identify and help their daughter with her problems. His personality may change after a recent event or it may be something deeply rooted. Most negative events that happen at the age of 2, 3 or 4 contribute to shaping children's personalities. When girls become teenagers, they live with the pain that comes with it for much of their lives. Girls may feel pain or anger, but they lack the ability to act on those emotions. However, teenage girls are capable of acting on these feelings with more lasting and harmful consequences. A couple of weeks ago a very informative program about troubled teenage girls of our century was shown on TV. There are many studies that show that the rate of teenage girls in the juvenile system today has increased over the past two years. Sociologists agree that adolescent girls in our society are increasingly violent. They have a couple of interesting ideas about such a dramatic increase in troubled teenage girls. One of them is that the meaning of a “teenage” girl has changed over time, and girls now have many more opportunities to make bad decisions and go down the wrong path than in years past. This is a big problem in our modern society because these teenage girls are our future generation. They are future women and mothers. If girls want to carry these titles, they should demonstrate it to our society... middle of paper... different behavior than simply having parents physically present. A new and interesting detail in this chapter was the portion of the study data that showed statistics from a majority of American girls and boys ages 12 to 15 who said their top concern was not having enough time with their parents . Approximately 35% of the percentage of teenagers say that their parents cannot spend time with them because they are too busy, too tired and stressed, or they prefer to be with friends (Gilbert). This shows how many parents don't put time spent with their children at the top of their priority list. They don't realize that their children's bad behavior is a consequence of not spending enough time with them. Family involvement can decrease the rate of girls in trouble, but if parents have already lost their child, they must participate in the treatment program their child goes through..
