In some countries, there are many social problems involving teenagers. Some people say this is because parents spend much of their time at work and not at home, do you agree or disagree?

Adolescents have been involved in several problems all across the world's societies. It is a common belief that the lack of the parents' presence is a major reason for

this

. Since they cannot give the attention their children deserve because most of the

time

they are out working.

This

essay is going to explain why people think

this

and give my opinion on it.

Firstly

, the figures of a mother and a father are assets in building not only the character of a teenager but

also

their personality. Because both represent mirrors for children where they can relate while they are growing up and experiencing novel situations. In

this

case, they tend to automatically remember how their parents would act on that.

However

, when the parents are most of the

time

away, their children are likely to shadow of what is closest to them.

For instance

, films, the internet and school friends are potential influences on their behaviour. Which mostly are damaging to them.

Secondly

, the absence of cherish in the adolescent's upbringing can make them rebel. Since they feel abandoned as their main resource of love, parents, are distant and busy with work.

Hence

, they have a tendency to not behaviour in order to call the parent's attention.

For example

, they usually start either skipping classes, using drugs or arriving late at home.

As a result

, their guardians might become worried and give them the

time

they need. To conclude, I totally agree that parents should spend more

time

at home with their children

instead

of working. By doing

this

, they could prevent many social issues caused by teenagers.
