A new study of 8,000 young people in the Journal of Health and Social Behavior shows that although love can make adults live healthily and happily, it is a bad thing for young people. 1. The study shows that girls become more depressed than boys, and younger girls are the worst of all.

     The possible reason for the connection between love and higher risk of depression for girls is "loss of self". According to the study, even though boys would say "lose themselves in a romantic relationship", this "loss of self" is much more likely to lead to depression when it happens to girls. 2. They won't tell that to their parents. 

Dr. Marianm Kaufman, an expert on young people problems, says 15% to 20% young people will have depression during their growing. Trying romance often causes the depression.

She advises kids not to jump into romance too early. During growing up, it is important for young people to build strong friendships and a strong sense of self. 3.

     Parents should watch for signs of depression—eating or mood changes. 4. . The good news is that the connection between romance and depression seems to become weak with age. Love will always make us feel young. 5. .

A. Young girls who have romantic relationships usually like hiding their feelings and opinions.

B. However, only maturity (成熟) gives us a chance to avoid its bad side effects.

C. Puppy love (早恋) may bring stress for young people and can lead to depression (忧郁症)

D. Parents should forbid their children’s puppy love.

E. She also suggests the parents should encourage their kids to keep close to their friends, attend more interesting school activities and spend enough time with family.

G. Lacking love can lead young people to grow up more quickly.
