When a child is small basic foundations of behavior are formed by observation. Each of us begins on our  journey of life with two parents or guardians  and through their example we learn how to behave.If this delicate balance is disturbed in any way for instance the sudden absence of one parent/guardian  then a problem is created. Children who have the absence of one guardian or from "one parent" begins to debate why the issues that are happening at home happen,causing a lack of concentration in school which leads to bad grades. School experience then turns into pain. Many of these children turn to alcohol,drugs,smoking and sex has a source to numb the pain but it only creates more problems. Later on others follow the same example. These issues destroy the strength of a community in which trust and responsibility play a crucial part. The decisions that these teenagers make now impact their future and these dangerous habits can destroy the dreams of a good job,a nice house,and a family to call their own.
