One of the stages in which young people encounter more
problems is adolescence. They have to face a lot of complex decisions such as their future plans and there are also many changes that
will continue until they are around twenty years old. As I said before, these years are filled with
changes but also there is a need to develop independence, and pressure from
studies and friends.
To begin
with the changes, there is the issue with gender. Males and females face
different challenges. Girls, for example, have to deal with physical appearance
issues as their body is changing. They are in a sense stuck between being a
girl and a woman. Teenagers also struggle with independence. Parental
relationships begin to become more difficult as teens try and find a way to be independence
and parents who worry about their future struggle to teach them the before they
are grown. Last but not least, nowadays money has become
a larger problem for teens. Materialism
has attacked them as now they all own a cell phone, expensive clothes…
In my
opinion teens should worry less, always look at the bright side of the life and
take everything with a pinch of salt. It
will be necessary to face hard decisions but it is not necessary to leave them
alter us.
