Not Coming Home Tonight.
In recent years, there has been an increase in the number of runaway teens in Hong Kong. Disharmony caused by a widening generation gap is believed to be the major reason behind this trend. More communication between parents and children is the key to solving the problem.
近年,香港青少年離家出走有上升的趨勢。社會風氣急劇轉變,兩代有不同的價值觀,亦缺乏時間彼此瞭解,容易造成隔膜或衝突。當子女感到父母偏心時,對家庭的歸屬感會減低;青少年最怕遭人冤枉,若家長產生這種誤會,容易令他們有離家的衝動。父母應了解子女的情緒及心態,子女也要主動與父母溝通,這樣才可以令家庭生活和諧。
