3. As youths' peer relationships become more
central to their lives, there is less time
available to spend with their family
members. However, the lack of time is not
the only reason.
The family is no longer the only source of
social support.
During early and middle adolescent
years, there is usually more frequent conflict
between teens and their parents.
4. WHY TEENS HAVE THIS KIND OF COMUNICATION
WITH THEIR PARENTS?
Sometimes youth avoid conversations with
their caregivers because they believe their
parents "just won't get it," or anticipate that
their worries and concerns won't be taken
seriously enough.
Another reason is to prove to
themselves, and to their parents, that they
can handle life's situations on their own.
Fortunately, this period of uncomfortable
tension and conflict between youth and their
parents does not go on forever.
6. COMUNICATION WITH THE TEENS.
Communication or talking to other people
and understanding what others say is very
important in your life. If people do not
communicate, we wouldn't be able to know
what others want, what to do or where to
go. If you are in class, and you do not
understand something, you ask. Then you
listen to the explanation and understand
what you did not understand earlier.

10. TEENS AND SCHOOL SUCCES.
One of the best indicators of the teens school
performance is wether they feel connected to
their schools.
Feeling connected means that students have
a sense that they belong and feel close to
people including teachers and other adults.
Students who are connected to school also
are involved in a rang of school activities.
13. PARENTS MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
Researchs shows children do better in
school and have more positive attitudes
about it when their parents are involved in
school life.
Teenagers clearly benefit when their parents
show interes.
There are many ways in which parents can
become involved in their childs school.
14. LET’S LOOK AT SOME OF THEM.
Communicate with the school.
Support your teen in school activities.
Involve both parents.
Encourage the involvement in leadership
opportunities.
18. TEENS AND SOCIETY
―Teenagers know nothing and do not
help society in the least bit possible.‖
This is some peoples‘ opinion on
teenagers, but not all teenagers are
like this. A lot of teenagers do help out
in society and help to make it better.
Some volunteer, work, etc, etc. Not all
teenagers are bad! Everyone wants a
good society to live in and enjoy.
21. CAUSE’S WHY THEY ARE FAT.
One cause is the kind of food they eat. Many
teens like fast food. These foods are full of fat
and sugar.
Another cause is the way teens eat. Their
little snacks between regular meals add
extra fat to the body.
A third cause is too little exercise.
22. TIPS FOR HEALTHY EATING.
Don‘t skip meals.
Learn about, healthy ways to prepare foods.
Sugar – avoid getting to much.
Be mindful when eating.
Avoid diet thinking.
25. TEENS AND SLEEP.
Research has shown that
teenagers don't get enough sleep
at night and go to school tired.
Some experts believe the cause is
biological. Others believe that
teenagers stay up late because of
adolescent distractions.
26.
27. SO WHY AREN’T TEENS GETTING ENOUGH
SLEEP?
For one thing, they are staying up late. A
variety of things can contribute to this night-
late tendency among teens, including social
life, caffe drinks, electronic media such as
computers, TVs and cell phones. Other
factors include procrastinating on
homework, and even depression.
28.
29. WHAT DO WE SUGGEST:
Encourage a short nap (30 minutes) after
school with the alarm clock set.
Encourage a regular bedtime routine to help
them.
Encourage your teen to go to bed and get up
at the same time every school day.
Cut out late-night phone chats.
Avoid arguing with your teen just before
bedtime.
Let them sleep in on the weekend, but no
more than 2 or 3 hours later than their usual
time

31. TEENS AND DRUGS
Alcohol, cannabis and tobacco are the most
common drugs used by teenagers.
Young people use drugs for many reasons:
for fun, out of curiosity, to feel part of a
group or to change how they feel because
they want to feel better or different.
There is no evidence to support the theory
that using cannabis will automatically lead
to someone using other drugs such as
amphetamines and heroin.
33. Young people use drugs for similar
reasons that adults do – to change how
they feel because they want to feel
better or different. Reasons may
include:
Socialising with friends, peer pressure
or the need to feel part of a group
Relaxation or fun
Boredom
Reasons teenagers take drugs
35. IF YOU SUSPECT YOUR CHILD IS TAKING
DRUGS.
There are no specific signs or
behaviours that can tell you a young
person is definitely using drugs.
Uncharacteristic behaviours such as
mood swings, a drop in schooling
performance, different friends and a
changed appearance may indicate drug
use – but they could also indicate
other issues that are not drug related.
36. TEENS & CRIME
Why Do Teens Commit Crimes?
Whether the news is discussing a teenage
assault or a shooting death, teenage crime is
everywhere these days. However, the
actuality is that teen crime is decreasing
from previous decades. Still, it is interesting
to discover why teens commit crime.
37. THEORIES/SPECULATION
There are many reasons why
teenagers could be influenced into
committing crimes. One reason is
their inexperience and youth. A lot of
times being young and having a lack of
experience can lead teenagers into
dangerous and often criminal
situations, such as joining
gangs, taking or dealing drugs and
drinking.

transition froom childhood into adulthood

63. ♥
Loving and being loved adds richness to our
lives. When people feel close to others they
are happier and even healthier. Love helps us
feel important, understood, and secure.
But each kind of love has its own distinctive
feel. The kind of love we feel for a parent is
different from our love for a baby brother or
best friend. And the kind of love we feel in
romantic relationships its a own unique type
of love.
64. ♥
Our ability to feel romantic love develops
during adolescence. Teens all over the world
notice passionate feelings of attraction. Even
in cultures where people are not allowed to
act on or express these feelings, they're still
there. It's a natural part of growing up to
develop romantic feelings and sexual
attractions to others. These new feelings can
be exciting — or even confusing at first.
66. ..
The longer I study lost loves and lost love
reunions, the clearer it becomes to me how
important young love really is. First
love, young love, is indeed real love. This
intense love does not come along every ten
minutes. For some people, it may come only
once in a lifetime.
67. " Don't let any emotion control you because
you are the owner of your life, you're going
to be a master of yourself."
Sometimes our bad mood will affect our
daily life. Don't let it go wild, believe in
yourself and you can do everything better! "
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thurs
day, Friday, Saturday. Someday is not a day
of the week."
You should never say I will do something
someday. Do it now.
