Puberty coming on ever earlier is my pet theory for what's causing this.
It might come in a way that's uneven. An adult set of sexual characteristics and drives without the corresponding development in executive function must be difficult.
Add to that the sudden arrival of sexual characteristics and attention at an age where our culture has no scripts and rituals with which to handle them. Kids must feel like adrift aliens, within the world and within their own bodies.
