It has become common for modern towns that children are isolating themselves away from parents and siblings to spend more with their friend group. This essay suggests that this is because adolescents feel oppressed in the households, and this can be tackled by raising public awareness campaigns.
One of the reasons young generations are becoming detached from families are the misunderstandings by their parents and even domestic violence. When children do not receive any support and care from parental figures, they attempt to seek these from their friends, which results in a loss of emotional bounds between teenagers and their guardians. Furthermore, such disputes can lead to a domestic abuse when youth get harmed by their family members. Hanging out with friends can serve as a way to relief the stress and escape from household strain. For example, psychologists claim that such escapism from families is due to quarrels between mother and father, lack of communication, or show casings of physical dominance over the youth.
However, this difficulty can be addressed by launching social awareness campaigns. Such projects can leave the social security contacts in the promoting banners, stimulating families to report about any signs of family hardship. That way children can get external help, and parents might educate themselves on how to properly communicate with their offspring. That is to say, if a child is feeling protected and supported unconditionally by their parents, they might dedicate more time to their family rather than counterparts. For instance, after being launched in 2023, the ‘Family voice’ domestic violence protecting campaign established the feelings of connection and empathy in over 200 families in Astana.
To conclude, although young generations can be felt unapproached or dominated in households, this can be alleviated if families would contact to social projects associated with solving such issues.
