Places to learn social skill

Social skills can be measured on about how you

treat other people and how you react to them.

Children who lack ongoing peer involvements also

may miss opportunities to build a sense of social self-confidence.

Communication
Spend more time in their room, with their peers,

and away from family activities.

Many parents of teenagers have problems talking

to their children, giving them advice, knowing their true feelings, or explaining things to them.

Consequently, opportunities for communication

diminish during this period of the child's life.

Parents
Workaholic parents - cannot spend time together

with their children.

Less influence and paying attention to the child,

he or she will mostly likely face peer pressure and this can lead to behavioural problems.
