Do you have teenage kids at
home? Then you would probably know what it is like to bring them up. The
teenage years are the most volatile and it needs a lot of caring to make them
follow the right track.
I have a daughter who is
fifteen years old. She is a good student but sometime back her grades began
dropping. I tried to ask her the reason behind it but she always eschewed it. Then
she began to act weird as if she was scared of something. This was quite
disturbing that I had look at her suffering from a constant feeling of anxiety.
She would not confide in me and so I decided to take her to specialist. I did
not have prior knowledge of treatments regarding mental and so, I took my
daughter to a psychiatrist. My daughter slowly opened up to her and confided in
her about her problems. The problem was with her boyfriend who was an
absolutely abusive type of kid. He used to frighten her, embarrass her and even
sometimes hit her. My daughter began to cry as she described her feelings while
I listened to all this feeling aghast. The psychiatrist suggested anxiety disorder treatment and some
medications. She also told me to support her very much as she needed it the
most and possibly to change her school. I did as she told me and now my
daughter is leading a healthy life. Looking back at those times a few years
back, I now realize that if I had not done what I did, I would have lost my
daughter.
