The Challenges of

Middle and Late Adolescence


Adolescents are attempting to find their own
identity, struggling with social interactions, and
wrestling with moral issues. The primary task of an
adolescent is to discover their identity separate from
their family and as a member of their community.

2
What are the Challenges
Of Adolescence?

3
1 Intellectual Maturation
During this period, attitudes are formed, which are like
remain relatively unchanged throughout life. Ways of thinking
are being developed which will lead to either:
 Healthy problem-solving techniques;
 Expanded intellectual curiosity and interest;
 Faculty habits; and
 Poverty of concepts.

4
2 Emotional Maturity
Teenagers are often confused about their role and are
torn between the responsibilities as growing adults and their
desires as children.
 Vulnerable to crying
 Mood swings are common
 Bodily changes result in self-consciousness
 Feeling of inferiority or superiority may arise at this time
 Sexual feeling arise to them. Feelings and thoughts about sex
can trigger a sense of guilt
5
Behavioral Changes
3
Overwhelming emotions can lead to impulsive
behavior, which can be harmful to the child as well as
others. It is mostly just teen behavior that will last as long
as their adolescence.
 They develop and exercise their independence. Questioning
the parents’ rules and standing up for what they believe is
right.
 Significant developmental change in the brain make them
moody, tired, and difficult to deal with.
6
Behavioral Changes
3
 The raging hormones in teenage boys can even push them to
get into physical confrontations.
 Dressing, hairstyle, and sense of fashion also change mostly
to something parents may not approve of.
 Hanging out with problem kids and adapting to a dangerous
lifestyle.
 Lying is one of the common teen behavioral issues. Teens
may lie to avoid confrontation with parents or out of fear.

7
Substance Use and Abuse
4
Teenagers are vulnerable and can be easily swayed to
the wrong side. Substance abuse is one of the biggest
problems adolescents’ parents have to deal with.
 Peer pressure is one of the significant factors that drive them to
take up smoking and drinking or to do drugs.
 What may start as a ‘thrill’ can become a habit
 Poor self-esteem and the need to be ‘cool’ can push adolescents
to smoke, drink, or do drugs.
 Easy access to these substances may increase temptations

8
Educational challenges
5
High school is not all about fashion, friends, and
parties. Adolescents also have a lot of educational activities
on their plate.
 Pressure to perform academically and obtain college admission
can be stressful, and make teenagers moody.
 Juggling school work, extra-curricular activities and chores at
home can be tiring.
 Distractions at school can result in poor academic performance,
which will add to the pressure.

9
Health Problems
6
Adolescents are vulnerable emotionally and
physically. Without proper nutrition and healthcare, they are
susceptible to illnesses.
 Teenagers have a hectic schedule as they hop from one activity to
another with little time to eat or rest properly. Unhealthy eating
habits prevent them from getting the nutrition they need.
 Consciousness about their body can lead to eating disorders,
especially in girls.

10
Health Problems
6
 Adolescent girls who worry about their weight and appearance
can develop disorders like anorexia or bulimia. Stress can also
lead to loss of appetite and sleeplessness.
 Unhealthy eating habits and a less active lifestyle could lead to
being underweight or obesity- this is often the case when a child
consumes a lot of empty calories through fast food ad soda.

11
Psychological Problems
7
Research has revealed that around 50% of mental
health disorders that adults have, begin at age of 14. In fact,
one-third (1/3) of adolescent deaths are suicides triggered by
depression.
 Teens may have self-esteem or confidence issues. The feelings of
inferiority or superiority often arise from their appearance, and
acceptance of their body.
 Poor performance in academics and low IQ can also demotivate
them. They develop the ‘I’m not good enough attitude towards
life.
12
Psychological Problems
7
 Depression
 Stress and pressure of adolescence can create anxiety related
issues, while mood swings can lead to conduct disorder or
oppositional defiant disorder.
 Eating disorders are also psychosomatic as they start with the
adolescent having a poor self-image and the need to change the
way they look by any means.

13
8 Social Problems – dating and relationships
Attraction to the opposite sex or same sex begins
during puberty. Adolescence is the time when their sexual or
reproductive organs start developing. It is natural for kids to
feel awkward in social situations.
 Adolescents need time to understand and get comfortable with their
sexuality. Girls and boys start experiencing ‘weird’ feelings
towards the other sex and may not know how to deal about it.
 This is the time they start dating. They may not be comfortable
talking about it.

14
8 Social Problems – dating and relationships
 Competition is another aspect of a teenager’s social life. The spirit
of competition speaks a lot about their perception of self- whether
they have a positive self-esteem or a negative one.
 Social circle expands during this time as they seem occupied
interacting with friends on social media sites through their gadgets
and outside.

15
Sexual health- unplanned pregnancy and STI’s
9
The development of secondary sexual characteristics
during adolescence gives rise to new feelings in teenagers and
pushes them to experiment with their bodies.
 This is the time when teens experience their first kiss, the intimate
dance with their lovers and secret make out sessions.
 Without proper guidance, they may become sexually active before
they are ready. This could result to teenage pregnancy.
 Unprotected sex can also lead to sexually transmitted diseases like
HIV.

16
Addiction to cyberspace
10
The advent of social media has changed the way we
interact with each other. It has affected teenage lifestyles the
most.
 Spending most of the time on phone.
 Have fewer friends and less active social life. Lead to solitary
lives and are happy browsing the internet for hours.
 Addiction to cyberspace also cuts short their physical activities,
resulting in an unhealthy and sedentary lifestyle.
 It affects academic performance.
