Should Teenagers Follow Parental Advice

Tony trusted God had a plan for all those decisions he didn’t agree with. Just like my parents had a reason for the decisions I hated as a kid. We can’t always see the reasoning or what is going on, we just need to trust the people making the decisions and respect those decisions. Though I didn’t always have the same respect for my parents as Tony did for his coaches. It is something I’ve learned to have.

As they go through this stage young people will begin to solve problems more easily and have an appreciation of other people’s views and opinions. However as they are still inexperienced in life a young person may appear immature at times with regards to their ways of thinking and speech. During the Emotional Development stage, a young person will begin to spend less time with their parents and want to spend more time with their friends socialising instead. A young person may also feel conflicted at times, as they will want the affection from parents, however this is usually short lived as the young person will then also reject it when it is given.

In a teen 's everyday life there are pressures that lead them to doing things they don 't want to do. Moving into high school adds to this pressure and they end up trying to “fit in” with the crowd. They end up becoming someone they really aren 't. However, they do find out who they are from these experiences. Though some teens choose not to conform and “fit in” with the crowd.

Not all teenagers shoplift, have parties, and disrespect their parents. There are causes for rebellion and defiance to get out of hand. The main cause is a struggling home life. Again, teenagers are not legal adults, so whatever their home life is going through, they are going to have to be apart of it.

Both Jem and Scout shift from wild, naive children to sensible and sophisticated young adults. They both come to many of the same realizations about what it means to be grown up, but the way that they encounter such understanding is much different. This theme is an important concept to grasp for everyone because from experience, many people either don’t understand or remember what it’s like to be young. Whether it’s because they don't remember, or think it’s different than when they had to grow up, it should still be an idea people think

Many people also feel that this book is irrelevant to student’s lives. However, kids should learn what life would be like for kids at their age in a different time period. Like what was stated before, in a history class, when we learn about the history, we learn about the straight facts, not as much of the personal lives of people living in that time. Since the novel is showing the personal recollections of one boy in the time period, students can identify the similarities between the two lessons. Since the similarities will be present, the students could make connections to both of the

In youth generations, teens are more sensitive to things, since they are learning who they are. Family plays a big role in a person’s life; if a person’s upbringing was negative, they’ll most likely have this negative view of the world, though it’s not true for everyone. Youth culture is just as important for young people since this culture is where they learn how to be and how to feel. Like in today’s youth culture, it all revolves around what is trending on the internet and who’s doing what. Lastly, society, which is many times perceived as negative by young people; thanks to songs and media, sometimes they don’t feel like they fit in with the standards that are set by

At some point everyone wants to be a “grown up,” you can do everything you want, right? Sooner or later we all learn that growing up isn’t as great as it seems and we then strive to have the innocence and lack of responsibility that we were once so eager to give up. There is a lack of control felt by teenagers, everyone wants to help shape their future, but nothing feels quite right to them at the time. Growing up is a painful and confusing time for almost everyone. In the famous coming-of-age novel The Catcher in the Rye, Salinger convincingly communicates the painfulness of growing up through symbols including, the ducks in the Central Park Lagoon, the Natural History Museum, and The Catcher in the Rye.

We hardly see people say or think is this the right thing to do, we tend to see people do things out of there own free will not thinking if it’s the right thing of wrong thing to do. In certain situations, the differences between right and wrong is clear in all problems we face. Some may be hard to figure out but in reality there is always going to be one solution better than the other. We sometimes think about our options in the short term instead of the long run, so some options might seem better in the end but in reality we might have made a

To solve these problems parents try to use various ways of influence on their children. Some of them are effective, some are not, it is very individual and depends on the character of the teenager. Moreover, it is age of storm-and-stress that causes much misunderstanding. According to the scientific research, teenagers with proper upbringing have fewer problems with their parents and generation gap is not so noticeable in these families, contrary to children from dysfunctional families who suffer from the lack of parental care, misunderstanding and indifference.

Banning books would deprive children of a real education about the world. If children don 't know about the world and what other people say and think or what others ' cultures and beliefs are how could they possibly grow to be informed, intelligent, and well-rounded individuals? True, some texts may promote damaging lifestyles to young minds, but again parents and teachers are more than capable of teaching their children what is right and not allowing their children to be exposed to harmful content with age restrictions. You can always teach your kids to be smart and make right choices. If they grow up believing certain things because they only have one narrow perspective, how will they be able to learn who they truly are as a person or what they really believe as a person?

Another example in which our actions are not always free is when we succumb to peer pressure. When we behave a certain way because we think society will find it acceptable is not an

Accordingly, how parents instruct their children to act and what they should do as a woman or men causes countless troubles because parents send mixed signals. If they don’t want them to act a certain way they should enlighten them something conflicting as a child so they can grow up how they want them to be when they become older. It all starts at home. Gender roles are very much alive today, but they would not be as relevant if you teach your child gender equality at a young

If parents allow this to happen, their kids will undoubtedly execute the mistakes their parents shielded them from later in life, unaware of the consequences. Kids need to learn from their blunders the hard way, to assure they won’t make the same fault again, For instance, my mom always tells me when to begin my homework, but it makes me not want to do it. Likewise, Ron Goldblatt, executive producer of the Association of Independent Maryland Schools, emphasizes, “...it is a real problem for a parent to work against their child’s independent thought and action…” (Strauss 1). As you can see, parent involvement only causes children to want to make the errors more.

Over the past decades, the United States has seen steady and significant decreases in the national crime rate. However, that is not to say the U.S. is not still experiencing violent and heinous crimes. For instance, teen related murder, something of which only a few years ago seemed to be fairly uncommon but appear now to be on the rise. If one were to inquire about teen murders, they would find no deficiency on the internet or in the newspapers of such stories. Which gives way to the question of what is to be done with them and how to ensure that justice is served to all parties involved.
