Parent - Teen communication

There is an unwritten constitution that parents and children follow, this constitution listed out what is to be considered taboo and what shouldn't  But this constitution has to be changed as generations and life styles change .What was forbidden before is not anymore .If it is not changed ,then the consequences a family will have to suffer will be vile .This is exactly what happened to Akash and his family. Akash had a very unusual death, especially considering that he was a 20 year old  engineering student .Even though his autopsy said cardiac arrest ,the reason for the cardiac arrest is not questioned . Well in Akash’s case it was a drug overdose . He had 8 “SP” tablets which caused his body to shut down . “SP” tablets are spasmo proxivon tablets which are used as pain killer for muscular spasm . The addictive ingredient in this is Dextroproxyphene, which is a mild narcotic analgesic. His parents are still unaware that he had drugs which caused his death. Akash couldn't take the pain of the break up with his girl friend He wanted help, but took resort to drugs. But if Akash had opened up to his parents and if his parents were sensible enough to say “ this is a part of life son ,move on”  he would have been saved ,what they didn't have was a proper communication between them  and the constitution mentioned above should be changed accordingly so that things that happen these days can be discussed.
            Topics like love , addiction ,hangouts should be discussed in the drawing room .Now this might seem hard to digest but the truth is your ward might be having many shady secrets which involves all of these  .More than 80 % of the youth in India consumes tobacco products and alcohol on a socializing basis and how many of you parents know it ?  If these things are discussed without any shame then the use of  mind soothers can either be controlled or even stopped. Same is the case with relationships because we all know that it is natural for people to fall in love and it is not a sin either, but the limits and boundaries should be known. Similarly the type of music one listens to actually states his mental genre. A person listening to psychedelic tracks is not in his best of states. Violence and depression never happen overnight ,it is a gradual and a slow process were one losses the slightest bit of patience to control the mind. The changes in your child’s behavior should be observed and questioned. Same is the case with one who beats around the bush when asked something. If we are able to put in an effective monitoring system then even extremist and terrorist thoughts can be eradicated in young minds as youngsters with a disturbed life are considered soft target .
       Progenitors and terminators are two different shades one light and the other dark. Why be scared of your progenitors?  Everyone has their own secrets which build their world but what matters is how much it differs from the moral and ethics inculcated in us .It is here that we need to bring in a new constitution so that there is an effective rapport between parents and children taking into account the outlook of the new generation and their exposure in all means to the new lifestyles.
