Poor sense of commitment to responsibilities
Poor family relationships
Socially withdrawn/poor social relationships
Negative/harmful peer relationships
Depression
Self-destructive behavior (e.g. climbing rooftops)
Deliberate self-harming (e.g. self-inflicted cuts on the wrist)
Carrying/keeping contraband or illegal items

Typically, children who are “at-risk” struggle to cope up with the stress of their lives. Due to pressure, these children are more likely to break down mentally. Whether to gain attention or as a means to get what they want, they involve in self-destructive behaviors and harmful actions that not only compromise themselves but other as well. If you suspect your child being at-risk, you need to take action now before it is too late.

Why At-Risk in Youth Happens

There is a widespread belief that the at-risk prevalence in youth nowadays is much higher than in the past. According to experts, this is due to the new culture that emphasizes in materialism, social cohesion and the cult of celebrity which young people readily embrace and aspects like morals and ethics usually goes into the backseat. New, highly effective forms of media, such as the internet and cell phones give high public visibility to all types of misbehavior, which unfortunately, teens would follow.
