When teenagers become isolated or isolate themselves they cut themselves off from the wealth of experience that older people could put at their disposal particularly when facing the problems of growing up.

Having strong, positive family ties allows teenagers to put problems in perspective. What they perceive as a major problem may not be when discussed with other family members.

Teenagers need to make relationships with people of all ages and experiences but need to take care to make the right ones.

Many teenagers would be a lot better off if they realised that having a supportive family is more cool than hanging out with your mates.
