May is National Adolescent Health Month! Adolescents are the future. They are the upcoming change-makers, lawmakers, the future teachers, doctors and the next generation of parents. They really mean the world to all of us - so it's vital that we invest the world in them. My 2 takeaways from my time as a teacher that I've taken into the public health sphere: 1. Adolescents are NOT children. They are in entirely different developmental stages, have different health needs and health risks, respond differently to their surroundings. Yet, often in the health space, children and adolescents are grouped. Recognising adolescence as its own unique group allows us to better direct interventions that allow young people to feel seen, validated, and safe. 2. Adolescents know so much more than we give them credit for. Shielding valuable knowledge from young people regarding sexual health and mental health will probably do more harm than good. Ensuring young people are not only provided with comprehensive, accurate information, but also given the space to discuss what they know, as well as provided with the tools to address misinformation from their peer groups and media must go hand in hand.

This is such a powerful post, I love what my friend Kaja Swenson is doing. She's doing master degrees in reproductive health in London. Through her 6 years spent in Japan, she found the problem of lacking the information in educating adolescents. I personally have been very interested in health education including sexual/mental health and most of them I self-taught through podcasts where people are providing "authentic" information. When I was in junior high school, I didn't get the idea of what exactly sex was through PE class. I didn't know how to use mental health emergency call center just with the number given in high school. And even when I started working, I tried to set up a councelling call with in-company therapist, but nobody picked up the phone. Why do these things happen? Because information has been spread just for the sake of its action itself and it has not been meant to have positive impacts on people, but it did have affected on us making ourselves think that what we are told isn't valuable enough and we have to find a way to deal with stuff ourselves, and most sadly that we aren't cared well. Let's start putting valuable information out there especially for young adults, because that's how they learn how to protect themselves, how to use the outerior resources to do so, and that way they become able to give a proper care to others too. People is the most important part of doing ANYTHING, and we learn how we want to take care of one another through the experience of being cared whether it's with respect or not. So it's very important to teach young adults the better ways.

Youth offending is a critical area of study in forensic psychology. Insights into adolescent psychology help tailor legal procedures and interventions to better serve young offenders, ensuring fairness, rehabilitation, and accountability in the justice system. Addressing youth offending contributes to safer communities by promoting positive youth development, reducing recidivism, and fostering resilience among at-risk youth. Recognizing the impact of trauma on youth behavior, forensic psychologists advocate for trauma-informed practices that prioritize healing and support for young offenders. By prioritizing research, intervention, and advocacy in the realm of youth offending, forensic psychology plays a vital role in shaping a more equitable and compassionate justice system for young individuals. #YouthOffending #YouthJustice #ForensicPsychology
