Help for teens with sexual behavioral problems...update | riversled's Blog


Over the last few years, treatment programs for teens have seen a significant increase in students struggling with sexual behavioral problems. Here are a couple of true stories. (Each of these stories were published as magazine articles in the UK. They appeared in ActioNetwork Magazine.) This is a look into a side of life we often find uncomfortable.

Hello! I have never giving much thought to teenage sexual behaviour problems. But after reading this journal I think that maybe I should start thinking about it a bit. Years ago a teenage boy in the neighbour hood chased a girl around a table while holding a knife and screaming - be my girlfriend - . When we first heard about it we just thought it weird. And when we heard that the girls boyfriend punched out the guy who chassed his girl friend around a table with a knife we thought it was the end of the story. But now I figure that kid had some kind of teenage sexual behaviour problem and as far as I know he never got any help for it. Also I am starting to think that the teenager that punched out the guy might have had a budding teenage sexual problem because it seemed that he was more mad that the guy wanted “his” girlfriend. Any way at the moment I can not think of a way that I can help your battle but I do salute you. Cheers!
