Abstract:
Adolescence is a transitional period between childhood and adulthood, typically spanning from around ages 10 to 19, marked by significant physical, cognitive, social, and emotional changes. During adolescence, individuals undergo puberty, experiencing rapid growth spurts, hormonal changes, and the development of secondary sexual characteristics. Cognitively, adolescents develop abstract thinking skills, critical reasoning abilities, and begin to question authority and explore their identities. Socially, they navigate peer relationships, seek independence from parents, and experiment with different roles and behaviours. Emotionally, adolescents experience heightened sensitivity to social approval, peer pressure, and mood swings as they strive to establish their sense of self and autonomy. While adolescence is a time of exploration, curiosity, and self-discovery, it also presents various challenges, including mental health issues, substance abuse, academic stress, peer pressure, and identity confusion. Adolescents may struggle with identity formation, peer relationships, academic performance, and managing emotions and stressors. Despite these challenges, adolescence is also a period of immense potential and resilience. Adolescents demonstrate adaptability, creativity, and resilience in the face of adversity, drawing on their strengths, relationships, and support networks to overcome obstacles and pursue their goals. Adolescence is a complex and dynamic stage of development characterized by both opportunities for growth and challenges to overcome. By understanding the unique needs, experiences, and developmental tasks of adolescents, we can support them in navigating this crucial period and facilitating their transition to healthy and successful adulthood.
