 Delinquency was the subject of Tuesday's Talking Teenagers |
All this week Breakfast will be Talking Teenagers, exploring the issues that affect young people growing up in the 21st Century. We'll be looking at some of the problems facing young people and their parents.
The series runs on Breakfast until Friday 24 October.
As part of our coverage, we've put together an extensive list of organisations which might be able to help.
This includes web addresses, phone numbers and a brief outline of what each organisation does, where appropriate.
There are also links for the features we're showing in conjunction with the BBC's Video Nation unit.

On Tuesday morning's Breakfast:
We heard from Christian Jenner of the National Family & Parenting Institute and Sarah Wilkins Coaching4teens.
They said communication channels are often blocked. Kids are not staying in school. They agreed there was a well of goodwill on both sides, but problems of misunderstanding were getting in the way.
We also spoke to John Wheeler of Childline and Mags Gavan who filmed "child delinquent" Bianca Jones for ten years.
