personally believe society has failed to see what is really going on in so many seemingly “good” homes — homes where the material needs are met, but the emotional needs are not. I further believe society has vastly underestimated the damage done through emotional abuse.
My conviction is that only when the prevalence of emotional abuse is recognized and addressed will teen suicide, self-harm and drug addiction be prevented. Till then the teens will simply be in too much emotional pain, pain which comes when their emotional needs are not being met over long periods of time.
Good Luck and Take care Always..
