Behaviour is getting worse. Explain the causes of this problem and suggest some possible solutions.

Along with

the development and changes in our society are the numerous issues about

drugs

,

alcohol

, and criminal

activities

.

This

observation asserts that human behaviours nowadays are becoming extreme and detrimental for everyone.

This

essay will provide a number of causes and possible solutions to these unsafe behaviours.

Firstly

, illegal

activities

are mostly connected with

alcohol

and substance abuse. Most convicted prisoners are either using

alcohol

or dealing

drugs

due to

poverty or intergenerational

trauma

.

For example

, there is a high number of Indigenous children involved with crimes in Australia because of a cycle of

trauma

and violence in the family. Their parents are unemployed and most of the time are under the influence of

drugs

or in prison.

According to

the study published in the Australian Association of Social Workers, Indigenous parents are experiencing ongoing

trauma

from their abusive parents, which affected their parenting and most likely lost track of taking care of their children.

This

ongoing

trauma

has a likelihood to continue especially when children grow up and have their own offspring. Considering the issues of Indigenous Australians, possible solutions are support from the government

along with

their active collaboration with the Indigenous communities. By way of illustration, the Australian government can establish regular meetings with the elders of the Aboriginal communities to discuss ongoing

trauma

in order to tailor their interventions to the needs of Indigenous

people

.

Furthermore

, governments in any country must collaborate and unite with their

people

to identify needs and strategies to end unlawful

activities

and rampant use of

drugs

and

alcohol

. Governments can start with education and health departments to increase awareness and reach out to families. In conclusion, the unhealthy behaviours of

people

can be traced back to intergenerational

trauma

and poverty which increase the likelihood of criminal

activities

and substance abuse.

However

,

this

issue can be resolved with the governments collaborating with their

people

by prioritising their needs, health and education.
