Teenagers News: January

In this period the activity at the Day Center for Teenagers was as we were used to in the last time, by meeting with them at the support groups, at the tutoring classes and other activities.

We also begun our individual counselling meetings, where we discovered at a different level the sentimental, behaviour and social problems the teenagers were having. Some of them experience loneliness and sadness caused by the loss of one of the parent, others experience resentment, anger or unforgiveness toward there fathers or mothers who gave up on supporting them. They worry and fear of tomorrow because their basic needs are not fulfilled; they experience the feeling of inferiority or insecurity caused by failures at school and in their families or by peer-rejection. We are encouraged to observe the openness and the vulnerability in the way they communicate during these meetings, the consistency of their attendance at the groups and counselling. All of these express again their cry out for help, their need for being heard, understood, loved and valued.

In order to integrate them in an emotional, moral secured environment, different from theirs, we tried to organize monthly a recreative activity for the teenagers that attend our Center. For January we chose to watch a movie together and then debate on it, emphasizing and issuing the importance of personal care, of clothing, and the importance of the accurate, moral, appropriate language. For February we prepared for our teenagers a special get-together for Valentines Day, where we discussed the difference between real love and passion, and the romantic relationships at there age. In March we organized for the teenage girls an 8 March get-together with pizza, soda, movie and discussions about the real beauty and feminity.For the 8th of March celebration, we offered gifts to our teenger girls and our voluntaires as well.

In this period we maintained our monthly meeting with the voluntaries. In these meetings we would like to motivate and equip their work (weekly tutoring in math, Romanian language and English) to show our appreciation for their dedication, to give them strength and courage in what the do and make them aware of the change and the good that they bring in the lives of these teenagers.
