Psychiatrist speak
Such violent tendencies in youngsters can either be genetic or caused by intoxication. Long lockdown where children were forced to stay indoors too may have affected their mindset. Mobile games too make children violent. They can turn violent or angry on petty issues. It is important to identify children’s mental state. Parents should immediately contact a speciality if they witness violent steak in their children. Counselling at an early stage can hold kids back to normal.
