This material may not be boring if such a task is performed jointly by a parent and a teenage child. I give such tasks to my clients who come for a consultation asking for loss of contact, lack of mutual understanding, and decreased motivation in their studies. Someone will now wonder what education, cognitive components and subcultures have to do with it. Someone is afraid that in this process the teenager will suddenly get carried away by one of the currents. And this behavior of parents immediately highlights the reasons for difficulties in communication: this is the fear of the world around them and the fear of losing their own power and authority. In this article you will find a description of several popular subcultures and their psychological analysis, possible reasons for leaving this culture. So, the first youth movement is “grandfather insight”, translated from English as “dead inside.” And they turn to a psychologist for a completely leading role in this flow of need - how to learn to suppress all emotions in yourself? And the most amazing thing is that teenagers break themselves not only in order to become part of a reference group, but often in order to be pleasing to society, for which such “living dead” are very beneficial. Teachers in silence, employers without disturbances. These guys talk and joke about death as the only outcome of life. It must be said that the influence and popularization of Eastern culture and philosophy was also reflected in the introduction of a number of subcultures, reflecting the subtleties and accents of Chinese, Korean and Japanese culture. Keypoppers are teenagers who are fans of Korean musical groups. Well, where would adolescence be without idols? After all, the culture of cultification and deification is embedded in a person over millions of years of spiritual traditions. Soft girls are modest and correct girls, impressionable and obedient, not rebels who choose pastel colors and school uniforms in their appearance. Very reminiscent of smart office styles in the adult world. Nyashki and bimbos. Girls in Barbie style. Sexually attractive and proud of their sophisticated forms, clients of early beauty treatments. Furry is the desire to be like animals from popular cartoons. What is this current for? Separate features of demonstrativeness in integration with the infantile position and subtle, sensitive psyche. Hickey is a difficult role of a social phobe, detached from the external hostile world, who finds a small piece of joy in the computer and digital space. Parents of such teenagers are most afraid of such personal silence. And more often they turn to psychologists for help. Greetings from the culture of the nineties of the last century have remained not only as a mirror of the behavior of many dads or grandfathers, but also as one of the charismatic types of self-expression. Officials are very similar to gopniks from the last century, who love to show the power of the crowd and consider any type of aggression to be the leading emotion in resolving conflicts and contradictions. Overt aggressive behavior is carried in front of oneself like a conqueror’s flag. They repeat the communication patterns of barbarian warriors. There are currents of modern youth subculture that characterize the emotional mood and offer the opportunity to sublimate one’s feelings suppressed in the family and society through appearance and characteristic behavior. Altushka girls who consider themselves not like everyone else are not accepted in the team for various reasons, remain vulnerable and impressionable at heart and broadcast romance and infantilism to the world. Vinishkochan are highly intelligent people with a keen understanding of art, literature, philosophy, spiritual practices and fashion, while remaining casually unassuming. These are girls who fight for feminism, current world issues and often visit a psychologist. Tube boys - deliberately confident in themselves, their charisma, refusing sports and a healthy lifestyle. Strong traits of narcissism are either cultivated in oneself, or the teenager plays the role of an arrogant and great individualist. Masiki boys, on the contrary, have been playing the role of a loving daddy for girls since childhood, gushing?
