betwixt-and-between junior-high-school pupil offers parents and teachers exciting challenge, for
adults cannot guide seventh, eighth and ninth graders without growing themselves. Neither "fish
nor fowl," the junior-high-school pupil is caught between tender childishness and manly promise.
During these years of change and unashamed enthusiasm, the young adolescent explores a
million quandaries, test a hundred selves and questions tumbling values as he rapidly
constructs others. What is the main idea of this passage about teenagers?
