Risks at teenage
It’s normal for teenagers
to want new experiences – although it can be stressful for you as a
parent.
Teenagers need to explore
their own limits and abilities, as well as the boundaries you set. They also
need to express themselves as individuals. It’s all part of their path to
becoming independent young adults, with their own identities.
• Also, the parts of the teenage brain that handle planning and
impulse control don’t completely mature until about age 25. This means
teenagers are sometimes more likely than adults to make quick decisions without
always thinking through the consequences. fighting

she or he is having serious problems. They may be being bullied, or having
trouble with school work, or struggling to deal with situations at home.
