More and more children and young people are dependent on care because they are showing behavioral problems. It’s not just because of the pandemic. How do you help the adolescents? For many municipalities, this is also a question of costs.

There have truly been better times in this world: the corona pandemic on the one hand, and the war in Ukraine on the other. In between there are the existential worries of many people and the question of how they can continue to master their everyday lives in view of the rising cost of living. Of course, what affects adults on a daily basis also leaves its mark on their children. This could become a real problem for the Ebersberg district in the coming years. The cases in which adolescents are dependent on care outside their own family are already increasing at breakneck speed. If this trend continues as expected, the district will face enormous costs.
