ACTIVITY 4
Teen situations around the world,
The common teenage problems that teenagers face today are usually related to:
Self-Esteem Stress Bullying
Depression Cyber Addiction Drinking and Smoking
Teen Pregnancy Underage Sex
It is crucial that teens feel validated in their feelings and thoughts because what they are going
through is a real part of their lives. Parents and guardians should not judge or criticize their
feelings or thoughts. Being sensitive towards teens and the fact that they are exposed to a range
of emotions (puberty being one of the most important experiences) is an important step in
understanding their transition. Anger, confusion, jealousy, non-compliant attitudes, dislike
towards their parents or elders, secrecy/high need for privacy etc. are few examples of
emotions or feelings they have.
A clear communication channel opens up many possibilities. This not only enhances the
relationship but also helps the child confide in the parents about sensitive topics like bullying,
peer pressure and abuse. Parents need to feel free to talk to their teens about certain common
teenage problems like dating, sex, drugs, and alcohol. It is this inability to discuss the good and
bad points that drives them to take wrong steps out of curiosity. Effecting use of communication
will foster building of trust, respect and acceptance between the teen and the parent.
