Teenage violence is increasing A mother was threatened with death by her son.



A mother was threatened with death by her son

Studies made by Cambridge University have showed that teenage violence is increasing without control. The teacher Matthew Levis, leader of these investigations, said that is a characteristic of the modern life style.

“Everyday it is more common to see angry people on the streets. People tend to be more aggressive than ten years ago, because of stress and the incapability to solve their problems without violence”.

According with Mr. Levis there are a lot of reason for this kind of violence but the most common one is the lack of attention from parents.

“Adolescents throw tantrums to get their parents attention but, unfortunately, they cannot express their feelings, so they lose the control of the situation”.

The Advani family experience is a perfect example of this issue. Last Friday night, Junior Advani threatened his mother with death with a knife. It was a shocking experience for Mr. Advani who had to take away his son to teach him respect.

In the world there are a lot of families which suffer from teenager violence. The teacher Matthew Levis says:

“It is so important to contact a specialist to solve this problem”.

  6. Very nice work. This is the most interesting topic I have read in this book.
    When I thought about Mrs. Johnson's position I thought that after the second "warning light" I would've believed in the student's mother.
    Yeah, his father was crazy, but why the mother would've invented this situation?

  7. Very good article!
    sadly this kind of news are more frequent
    but school has an important role in students formation, so maybe we can do something to change this situation, or at least part of it.
    Good Job!
