Problem-Solution Essay - Emma García

Nowadays, toxic relationships with their couples are becoming more common among teenagers. Even so, many of them can’t recognize that they are in this situation.

Toxic relationships are a big problem because these situations often end up in abuse. Abuse is often associated with physical violence, and although it is one of the most serious forms of abuse, it is not the only one. Partner control or insults are also part of abuse. Many times, young people don’t give importance to these situations, due to they think that this shows that the couple cares about them. Parents should have educated their children to recognize these behaviors, but many don’t do it.

For this reason, schools should offer educational programs to inform about all the forms of abuse. Furthermore, schools and parents have to educate the new generations from respect to end this problem.

To conclude, educate young people could be a method to recognize a toxic relationship and, in this way, avoid that these situations end in abuse.
