Teenagers

“No one feels another's grief, no one understands another's joy. People imagine they can reach one another. In reality they only pass each other” (Franz Schubert) When teenagers hit the teenage years nobody understands them, not even themselves.  Each kid has different hormonal changes that can make him or her very angry or emotional at one point, and the next very happy. They feel pressured by their parents at all times, and when they can’t take it any more they have out bursts. It is like their own parents don’t know them and treat them as if they are dumb or still kids.

This is the age when teenagers are trying or experimenting with different things like alcohol, and drugs. Many of their parents are afraid of this because they think that teenagers only cause trouble. Every kid wants their parents to understand them and their actions, but parents never listen. They assume that teens know or understand everything they tell them, but adolescents don’t, and that’s when the problems and fighting start.

            Every growing adolescent needs 9:30 hours of sleep everyday. Many teens stay up late playing video games, doing homework, or watching T.V.  They need all the rest they can get or else their learning abilities will get worse. It is hard for parents to get their children up in the morning. They also have to be remembering their children to do their homework, or to take the trash out.

            Teenagers are in a growth and emotion spurt at this age. No one understands them, and their parents are always scolding them.  One minute they are having out bursts and the next they are very cheerful. Parents and other adults have to make an effort to understand them and help them.
