The Adolescent Passage...not smooth at all

Adolescence is a difficult time for children. They leave childhood and move to the adult world with all that entails difficulties, worries and turmoil. But children are not the only ones to wonder and worry. Their parents, who see their young adolescence, turn their eyes without being able to intervene. Their little angel, once courteous, gentle and polite, is transformed into a new being which displays the attitudes and behavior, to say the least surprising. So what?

Adolescence is a passage that is never smooth. The young leaves children, with all that implies, and attempts to gain some independence from his/ her parents and adults in general. He considers himself no longer as a child and no longer wishes to be considered as such by others. Leave and childhood creates insecurity among the young. He fills this insecurity by partnering with other teenagers, at the same time meet its need for friendship. This need to get together in groups often worried parents.

When children, young people generally ask demands to their parents. Sometimes they protest, they will never go so far as to question their authority as it is for adolescents to do so. This calls into question the role of their parents is also the need of adolescents to become detached from their early childhood into adulthood. The young do not want to go back into the world of childhood. This make the parents scare who feel they lose control. They wonder if they are good parents.

The challenge offered by the youth and adolescents may lead some parents to adopt a defensive deal with them. The youth in need of security can no longer find it with his parents, which can result in unwanted behavior.

For these reasons, it is essential that parents continue to supervise their teens. Some parents become too rigid. They try to manage their young things that are not within range. For example, they ask him to return two hours earlier. They use such methods in order not to lose control of their child. These parents, even if they seek to do, give rise in the adolescent feel totally misunderstood. The battle continues with the means that may take various forms.

Such an attitude gives impression to the young person.

Other parents relentlessly apply leadership because they believe that their young will have to learn and find out for him. The youth need guidance. He needs to feel that their parents do not let down. The young discover that security, even if it never confessed. Parents need to set certain beacons. General rule, a reduction in the negative behaviors follows the installation of such a framework.

Adolescence is also a period of experience. Young people are going to try things, often just out of curiosity. They are also very sensitive to patterns and want to do as the others. This worries many parents. If education is solid first, adolescence will get him/ her more easily, of course, the transition from adolescence manifested in a way or another without causing serious problems.
