Self Harming

According to latest research more teenagers than ever are reporting to A & e with eating disorders or self harming ?

Why is this.? are teenagers under more stress than ever and do they know how to deal with stress safely. Is it ok to feel inadequate or under pressure. Many teenagers I see have low self esteem. how can we improve this situation. Do we need to look at how as parents we portray how we deal with emotion, stress, failure…… Children often copy their parents. Do we need to get round the kitchen table and talk more ???

Any thoughts or questions welcome ???
