Why do all the students have a line on the inside of their wrists? What's wrong with today's teenagers?

Greetings, classmate.

A few brief sentences may have touched on a topic of great interest and importance: mental health education for adolescents. What, then, is the significance of a bright landscape observed on the inner aspect of their wrists?

The question thus arises as to whether the injury was inflicted by another party, or whether the individual in question was responsible for inflicting the injury upon themselves.

The precise nature of the injury is unclear.

Nevertheless, with regard to adolescent growth, I may be able to offer a few brief remarks.

It is important to note that the individuals in question are unaware of the cause of the scars on their hands and therefore unable to provide an informed opinion on the matter.

The growth of children in adolescence is influenced by the family environment, the people around them, and society as a whole. Each of these factors may have a certain impact on the growth of adolescents. During this period, adolescents experience a desire to grow up while simultaneously remaining dependent on their families. This can result in a sense of confusion and uncertainty.

Adolescence is a period of significant physical and emotional transformation. During this developmental stage, individuals tend to respond intuitively to others, recognize their own emotions, and make decisions, which partially contributes to their impulsivity, emotional volatility, and inclination towards risk-taking behaviors.

Their relationships with their peers assume greater importance than their relationships with family members, which is one reason why they are influenced by their peers.

In the current situation, it may be advisable to discreetly inform a trusted teacher in order to avoid any undue attention. Alternatively, a private conversation with the teacher, if they are amenable, could be a viable option.

It is also possible to request assistance from the relevant authority on the platform.

Hello, classmate. I can see you're confused, and I'm here to help.

I think you're referring to the classmates who had a beautiful landscape on the inside of their wrists. What you're probably saying is that they hurt themselves.

Nowadays, adolescents harm themselves because they want help. It can also be a cry for help, a way of telling those around them that they are under pressure and need help.

Sometimes, it's because they've had a negative experience at school, like being teased by classmates.

I remember when I used to live in Singapore, there was a TV series called "Smiling Justice" that featured a 9-year-old girl. She'd been living with her aunt since she was young. Then one day during a heavy rain, she and two female classmates found a puppy lying motionless by the roadside. They went to rescue the puppy, but didn't notice an oncoming car; accidentally knocking one of the female classmates down.

Later, the story of how they rescued the puppy was posted online in the form of a video, but many of her classmates, without knowing the whole story, criticized the little girl for recklessly endangering human lives, and even worse, the life of a puppy.

The little girl was really upset, but she didn't know how to express her frustration. So she used a ballpoint pen to hurt herself on her hand to vent her anger at the people around her. Fortunately, her actions were discovered by her aunt, who stopped her immediately. She also called a male colleague who worked with her at the news agency to help persuade the little girl.

The male colleague told the little girl at the time that her classmate was right to scold her, but on second thought, was she really in the right? There was just her and the other two female classmates, who were also about 9 years old. What could they do to save the puppy?

It was raining pretty hard at the time, and she was pretty adamant that her female classmates go with her to save the puppy. She was probably just overconfident; if she'd thought it through, she might have realized that her classmates could've gotten hurt.

Thanks to her aunt's male colleague, the girl was finally able to let go of her anger. She also went to the hospital and apologized to the parents of her female classmate who had been hit by a car and injured.

Just think about it. If the girl's aunt hadn't noticed her inappropriate behavior right away, what unexpected consequences would there have been?

As I mentioned earlier, the girl was self-harming because she felt like she couldn't find her place in the group.

Moreover, most cases of self-harm among adolescents are committed by girls. This is because parents tend to encourage boys to express their dissatisfaction through destructive behavior, such as smashing things, going boxing, or playing other aggressive sports.

However, girls are different. From a young age, they're taught to be gentle and refined, and not to act rudely. This can lead to their dissatisfaction going unexpressed, and they may turn to self-harm as a way of coping.

Just like the new platform, there's a free one-on-one chat room with different teachers on different topics every night at 8 pm.

If you know anyone in your class who is self-harming, you can tell them they can come to the counseling room to talk about it.

I really hope you can find a good solution to the problem you're having soon.

That's all I have to say for now.

I hope my answers were helpful and inspiring. I'm here to help, and I study hard every day.

Here at Yixinli, we love you and the world loves you too! Best wishes!

I'd love to know if the questioner is a classmate or teacher of these students.

"A bunch of my classmates (16 years old) noticed that they all had a gorgeous landscape line on the inside of their wrists, and it made me feel so sad to see it," the questioner describes it on the one hand as a "beautiful landscape line" and expresses his feelings on the other hand with "so sad." I'm not sure if the questioner feels more of an "appreciative mood" or a "sad mood."

"You say they don't feel pain?" The questioner seems to be asking someone else, but more like asking himself. Perhaps the questioner really wants to explore the underlying reasons and get "closer" to them!

"They don't say much when you ask them..." I'm sure the questioner is just as confused as you are about why they don't respond to your questions.

Maybe the questioner thinks everyone can understand what you mean by "a beautiful landscape," and that everyone can also associate it with the result of some kind of "bad behavior." That's why the questioner has asked a slightly worried question: "What's wrong with today's young people?"

I'd like to suggest that the "appearance" the questioner sees might be influenced by their own concerns, but there could be other factors at play. It's possible that they're trying to appear cool and fashionable despite the pain, just like the questioner said, it is a "bright scenery."

I can see that you have some concerns, and I'm here to help. I think you might be feeling a bit like an outsider, looking in at a scene you're not a part of. It's natural to focus on the scenery when you're trying to understand a situation. But I'm here to help you understand the people carving the scenery. I'm here to help you ask them questions and get the responses you're looking for.

I really hope my reply helps you out! Wishing you all the best!

Hi there!

From what you've told me, it seems like you're a very gentle person. I'd say you're probably much happier than your classmates!

Self-harm and tattoos on the inside of the wrists are a way of finding "my existence."

When someone feels lost and in pain and doesn't get the attention and understanding they want, they start to doubt whether they really exist. Pain makes people realize their true existence.

Does anyone care about the self that's been hurt, or the self that's been disobedient and inconsiderate? This is a way to get the warmth and love you want by obviously gaining the attention and care of others and your family.

Teenage problems are often a reflection of underlying parental issues and conflicts.

Relationships are a mirror. They reflect who we are, and in today's fast-paced world, many people are experiencing anxiety, fatigue, and stress due to withdrawal.

So, most parents don't have a good mood when facing their children, and they may even let their emotions get the better of them.

However, these kids don't get enough recognition at home, so they start to "cause trouble" in various ways to get attention from others. Sometimes, they don't know how to get along with others, and they're going through a lot of changes during adolescence. They also don't have the guidance they need to navigate these changes. This can lead to various problems, including emotional distress and even suicidal thoughts.

It's important to have a good set of values.

Ultimately, the choice of what kind of person we can become is up to us. Despite the current era of short video knowledge fragmentation and fast food,

Even so, there are still lots of great cultural treasures out there, full of love, courage, hope, social criticism and reflection. This means we need to slow down and read. Get close to traditional culture and classic books, gain spiritual nourishment from them, and have a direct dialogue with great souls.

Take your time to develop your own way of thinking and your own value system. Be yourself, and enjoy a rich and happy life.

This is one of the most important things everyone needs to experience and face during their growth process: developing a positive outlook on life and using their own wisdom to live a good life.

I hope my answer is helpful. You're a thoughtful child and very gentle, which I appreciate. I hope you'll find time to read more about history and the biographies of those ancient people and scientists you admire. Understanding the development and changes of the times is important.

Learn about those great people, what they went through, how they fought monsters and leveled up, and finally became the big V that will be passed down through the ages. The world and I love you, duck!

Have a good night.

I am grateful for your trust in me and for the opportunity to communicate through words.

It is evident that you care about your classmates and are perplexed by the motivation behind your child's engagement in self-harm.

The lack of information regarding the identity of the questioner, as indicated by the message, may limit the understanding of the phenomenon and the measures of intervention. Without knowing the identity of the questioner, it is challenging to determine the appropriate response. The questioner's identity may influence the way the phenomenon is perceived and the measures that should be taken. For instance, if the questioner is a teacher, their perspective may differ from that of a parent or a classmate. Additionally, the tone of the description may indicate whether the questioner is a teacher. The tone can provide insight into the questioner's position and their understanding of the phenomenon.

Accordingly, the following responses will be based on the aforementioned three perspectives, which may assist the questioner in viewing this phenomenon from multiple perspectives.

1. The classroom teacher

Should the class teacher observe this phenomenon and inquire of the students, they may be unable to divulge the difficulties they are experiencing due to concerns pertaining to the teacher-student relationship.

This is also the reason why "asking them may not elicit much of a response" is a possible reason.

One may discern a picturesque landscape on the interior of their wrists.

This description is notably subtle and euphemistic. On the one hand, it illustrates the questioner's apparent inability to bear witness. On the other hand, it reflects an instinctive avoidance of the phenomenon of self-harm. Such avoidance may also lead classmates to perceive self-harm as a topic that should not be discussed.

The occurrence of self-harm and even wrist-slitting can be attributed to a multitude of complex factors, including those related to family dynamics, social environment, and individual adolescent development. It is essential to recognize that every child possesses unique characteristics and experiences.

This uniqueness must be understood individually, after establishing trust.

It should be noted that there is also a universality beyond uniqueness, and that the emotional management skills of adolescents at this stage are still being perfected and developed. In the event that the pain inside cannot be relieved, they will often seek to reduce the psychological pain through physical harm.

Furthermore, it is important to note that adolescents may seek to gain a sense of control through self-harm.

2. Peers

If an individual is not being responded to as a classmate, it is likely because they have not yet entered the inner circle of these classmates. Group friendships develop very noticeably in 16-year-olds.

Peer acceptance is also susceptible to blind conformity. During the initial stages of the "Blue Whale Project," a considerable number of students engaged in self-harm as a result of peer influence.

Although you have been excluded from the inner circle, this may have served to protect you in another way.

3. Parents

Parents are typically less inclined to inquire out of mere curiosity and more out of concern for their children. Consequently, adolescents who engage in self-harm may be particularly reluctant to divulge information to their parents.

Adolescents are frequently more concerned about adults failing to comprehend their actions and thoughts than adults are about their own speculations. By providing them with greater support, there is a possibility that the adolescent's obstructed emotional state may be alleviated.

Regardless of the role in question, this phenomenon in children must be taken seriously. It is beyond the scope of the questioner's abilities to intervene directly. Instead, it is necessary to mobilize the strength of multiple parties, such as schools and families, to help these children overcome their psychological predicament and embrace the positive aspects of the current season.

My objective is not to explore human nature per se, but rather to gain insight into the psychological processes that shape human behavior. I extend my best wishes to you.

Dear questioner, It's so great to see that you're also a teacher who cares deeply about young people, either in your profession or not!

I'm sure you'd love to help them if they look like this!

We may all have some ripples in our hearts when we see the lines on the inside of their wrists, and we really want to know why and help them! But they avoid talking about it. Each student has their own pressures to deal with, which is why they behave in this way.

I bet you're thinking they don't feel any pain. Well, I think it's because they feel so alive!

As a psychological counselor, I think that for such children, first we need to understand their family environment, and then get to know them. With adolescents, sensitivity and respect are important, and they actually have a strong sense of self. Or maybe they are just pursuing individuality and rebelling—and that's a great thing!

So, it just takes a little time to gain their trust!

Second, you have to give him enough respect. For children with such a scar, we have to find a different way to communicate. If you ask directly, they will flinch because of your status. So, we can use a neutral approach and talk to them like friends!

You can say, "Wow, that's a very special scar! Is it a mark of growth? Or, I once wanted to get a scar like that, too, but I chickened out and didn't do it."

If you're a boy, you can say, "I don't know if this mark will affect my participation or my chances of getting a job." Men in uniforms are very handsome. Wouldn't it be great to try it?

These kinds of approaches are sure to make them let down their guard and want to communicate with you!

Third, many adolescent problems are related to family factors. This is a great place to start! By understanding the family situation, you can gain valuable insight into why the child behaves in this way.

Finally, if you are particularly concerned about these children, you can learn about some fascinating and relevant psychological knowledge, the characteristics of psychological development during adolescence, and the impact of the family on a child's growth. You can also do some further learning and understanding!

I really hope this helps! If you have any questions about adolescent psychology, I'd be delighted to chat.
