With these tools, they helped me to understand the collaboration and relationships of the client. The genogram shows that client’s parents are divorced and client is staying with his mother. The ecomap shows that his parents are having stress in finance even though they are having a source of income. His parents stressing drugs while receiving positive energy from drugs as they feel better when take drugs and at the same time they are not aware of what they are doing when they are on drugs. For the client, school is draining his energy and it is stressful for him. Therefore, he dropped out of school when he was in Secondary 2. He shoplifted as there is a stress on finance in his family.

Tayib is likely feeling as though he is a failure and disappointment to parents and that he is a failure at life in general (Broderick, 2014). Not only is he not living up to their expectations, but he keeps getting passed over for promotions at work, despite his dedication. Even so, he sticks with his same job, hoping one day that his good work will be noticed. Possibly one of Tayib’s problems is that he is not assertive enough when it comes to work. He lets his boss glaze over him and allows him to ignore his efforts without telling his boss how it truly impacts him. His coworkers and supervisor benefit from his conscientiousness without giving anything back. Furthermore, Tayib seems a bit
The stand or fall of social environment has a strong impact on the formation of a child’s behavior. Wes P had begun selling drugs, which was making him plenty of money. He explained his cash flow and expensive purchases by telling his mother he had become a successful DJ in the neighborhood. “ Tony found his younger brother and asked for an explanation for the learning tower of Nikes. Wes stuttered out a story: he’d became a popular DJ and was making incredible loot DJing parties.”(69) While Mary believed him, Tony did not. One day he came by the house and noticed Wes P’s room had changed a lot, and a tower of new shoe boxes convinced Tony that Wes had gotten into the drug game. Under the influence of society and vanity, Wes P chose a wrong to making money to sell drug. Throughout the current juvenile crime is visiting trend and the situation of the children more and more to discipline. I believe that in addition to the existing school education way and the modern social development also does not adapt and family education also has a larger error, largely due to social bad education caused by environment factor. Society environment is also equally important, and a good society environment is more conducive to the healthy growth of children, but no more important than family and school environment to the

Due to this, he used drugs that dropped him out of the college totally. These students don’t want to seem irresponsible, so they make up an excuse, such as the bad friendship. Another reason we drop out of college is that we want to be independent. A lot of news has been saying that students are sensitive during the adolescence.
After completing my family genogram, I was able to notice the history of a couple of patterns of fusion in particular. One of the relational patterns that stood out was emotional abuse which for the sake of this assignment I have only traced it back three generations, starting with my paternal grandfather Marciano, who endured the aftermath of the WWII and who conceived out of wedlock (COW) from Spanish and Mestizo parents and who married a woman Fidelina, of Chinese and Indian origin, born in El Salvador like him. Based on anecdotal accounts, Marciano was particularly emotionally abusive towards Rosa, my mother, who is also the first born of the couple and COW. Marciano had very high standards of beauty and intellect, which often triggered name calling, insults, and other forms of humiliation aimed towards my mother, causing her to feel belittled and resent his treatment towards her.

5). The researchers at CASA have also found a correlation between the stress of academic performance and drug use, describing academic performance as the greatest stressor for high school students. In comparing low stress teens with a GPA of 3.0 or higher (A’s and B’s) to high stress teens with a GPA of 2.9 or lower (C’s and D’s), the high stress students who perform poorly are, “Seven times likelier to have used marijuana; more than three times likelier to have used alcohol; and more than three times likelier to have used tobacco” (The National Center on Addictions and Substance Abuse, 2012, p. 5). As complex as the social predictors of adolescent substance abuse are, determining the factors of drug use in high school comes down to three basic aspects: 1) the degree of family involvement in the adolescent’s life, 2) the degree of a student’s free time and 3) the amount of a student’s spending money or
We sent him many topnotch places, where many well-known individuals gave testimonials, and took him to talk to many legendary people, but these special places and people could never fix his problem. It always seemed to be a repetition of the same things. Most would use card stacking and the rehab centers propaganda told us, “He needs more help than we can give him.” Some places or people he went to would say this phrase by using common, plain folk, but most would say it with exigent. They believed he was using and drinking so much they thought he would never be able to live to see his 30s. Hearing this news and learning nobody is helping us, we took it upon ourselves to motivate him to quit. We decided to make a PowerPoint that would use logical appeal to help him grasp the number of people who were at the stage he is and were able to quit, but he would just use red-herring to drive us away. At our last resort, my parents and I thought if we used emotional appeal and spoke to him from our hearts he would listen and change. We were right! He finally admitted that his decision to quit because to us that our heart to heart talk, common dissonance resulted in him lying awake at night as he thought about making a change. He broke down that night, and promised us he would quit. Even though some of our persuasion methods failed, we knew one was going to work one
He started to write about his life when he had a lot of problems that he couldn’t fix. One of them was that his mother doesn’t trust him anymore, since his friend thought him how to lie. The first time he lied to his mother, his mother knew Mathew was lying to her. After a month later his mom found out that Mathew wasn’t going to school, she found out he was hanging out with his friends instead of going to school.
