Abstract：Some researches indicate that people grow up in normal family could easily have healthy personalities and behavior. On the contrary, those who from broken home lack of care from parents may have mental health problems such as hatred, impulse, frustrate feeling, defiance of law, shrinking back easily, unreason, and aggressive behavior. The leisure experience has profound influence on one's leisure attitude and behavior. Families with incomplete structure can provide the teenagers with neither relatively complete environment in their growth nor the needed leisure resources or enough chances and rights to participate in leisure activities. In order to study the leisure constraints on adolescents from high-risk families, in this paper, the authors employ a case study on 106 students from Cih-Huei Class of Sioulin Junior High School in Tainan Hualien, which was founded in 1993 and enrolls secondary school students of 13-15 years old who are from families which have suffered accidents or poverty problems. Through the analysis of these students' leisure constraints scale, the authors find that leisure constraints (interpersonal constraints and structural constraints) on teenagers from high-risk families are very notable (3 points higher than median level), and this finding suggests that teenagers from high-risk families suffer from multiple leisure constraints including family pressure, companion factors and family financial status. Based on the analysis, this paper comes to a conclusion that family pressure and environment deeply influence one's leisure activity which makes teenagers from Cih-Huei Class have far less time and opportunities to participate leisure activities than those from normal schools. Therefore, in order to help the students in Cih-Huei Class to change the situation, the school should strengthen the function of association activities to create more time and opportunities for the students? to stay with their peers, and the government should provide financial support to the families and construct a good and safe recreational environment to provide the teenagers from high-risk families health lives.
