1 COMMON PROBLEMS TEENAGER FACED TODAY Teenagers face real problems on a daily basis during the most awkward growth stages of their lives is between 13 and 19 years- old. During this time, teens are exposed to some overwhelming external and internal struggles. Teens go through, and are expected to cope with hormonal changes, and puberty.

The teens start feeling stress when they are exposed to peer-pressure and competition at school, or child abuse at home. Many teens take to drinking and smoking in order to relieve the stress.

Many teens feel further stress when they get bullied online.

4 Lately, most teens are doing things that they’re not supposed to be doing because they are still too young to the action. They do know they are underage, but it does not affect them at first, but it’s gonna affect them sooner or later. Sometimes, they’re not careful about their actions. As we are growing up, soon becoming an adult, we have to take full responsibility of our actions. Yes, as a teenager we are curious to try the things that adults do. Of course we wanted to explore and try new things. Sometimes we have to remember which one is right and which one is wrong.

She proceeded showing it to him. A week after, there was a facebook account that was made under her name with her breasts as her profile picture. Turns out the stranger screenshotted her breasts. The week after, the people in the school that she attended, found out and started bullying, hating, on her. She finally moved to different school. Not long after, they found out about it too..

On October 10, 2012, the 15 year old Amanda committed suicide. Do you think she deserved to be treated that way because of the mistakes that she did? What would you do to help her and make her not commit suicide?

7 As teenagers, it is hard to contain our emotions as we are very emotional in high peaks. It is normal to act out tantrums. But once you meet depression, you need to seek help. You can’t keep it to yourself. Keeping it to yourself isn’t gonna help anything but it will lead to making it worse. If you think there is something wrong with you, you should let your parents or closest ones know. If you got told “There is nothing wrong with you, you are a normal teenager” you probably are normal because that is part of a phase.
