Family conflict is the main cause of childhood unhappiness. The Children's Society has surveyed 7,000 10-15 year olds and 7% of them said they were unhappy.
Interestingly, the strucutre of the family (blended, nuclear etc) made a negligible impact on the young people.
17.5% said they were unhappy because of appearance, 16% because of lack of confidence. School work is the problem for 12%. However, the vast majority named family conflict as the biggest problem.
