Please help my at risk child from Aiea, HI find affordable help before its too late

Troubled teens are "at risk children" whose life has gotten out of control; they may be using drugs and alcohol, acting out in defiance, running away, and have dropped out of school. These teens may be getting in trouble with the law (underaged drinking, vandalism, or running away). An at risk youth may not be involved with any illegal activity, but still be considered "at-risk".  For example, a girl may be allowing her boyfriend to abuse her and not know which way to turn. A young man may have been sexually abused when he was younger and too ashamed to tell anyone. There are literally thousands of factors that would create an "at-risk-youth".

These struggling teenagers may have gotten mixed up in a suburban gang (gang wannabees) and they care more about the "acceptance" from their peers than they do about their future.  They know they are heading in the wrong direction, but don't care.  The acceptance of their peers are way too important. Troubled teens are any teenager who is involved in things that can ruin their life, or even end it. They may not even realize what shape they are in and that they need help.  At risk teens can be immature teenagers who are entitled.  Meaning, their parents have provided everything and the child is simply spoiled (demanding, selfish, self-centered, lazy, irresponsible).

Some at tisk teens may be involved with drugs, but not all at-risk youth are abusing substances. However, for parents - the more you know about what may be going on behind your back, the better prepared you will be to deal with your child's situation (preferably before it becomes a major issue). A lot of parents look at their child's outrageous behavior as a "phase" that they will grow out of... and its true, some teens do go through a short rebellious stage.  Unfortunately, most teens do not go through a phase without serious consequences.  If your child is "at risk", we can help you gind an affordable treatment intervention option.

Famous QuotesIf only it were possible to love without injury fidelity isnt enough: I had been faithful to Anne and yet I had injured her. The hurt is in the act of possession: we are too small in mind and body to possess another person without pride or to be possessed without humiliation. In a way I was glad that my wife had struck out at me again I had forgotten her pain for too long, and this was the only kind of recompense I could give her. Unfortunately the innocent are always involved in any conflict. Always, everywhere, there is some voice crying from a tower. Graham Greene

Famous QuotesI've been in love before, it's like a narcotic. At first it brings the euphoria of complete surrender. The next day you want more. You're not addicted yet, but you like the sensation, and you think you can still control things.You think about the person you love for two minutes then forget them for three hours. But then you get used to that person, and you begin to be completely dependent on them. Now you think about him for three hours and forget him for two minutes. If he's not there, you feel like an addict who can't get a fix. And just as addicts steal and humiliate themselves to get what they need, you're willing to do anything for love."- By the River Piedra I Sat Down and Wept Paulo Coelho
