Dear Joyce Boateng , adolescent period is often believed to be a difficult period and very critical stage of transition because of various qualitative shift that they pass through at that moment of life and this conflicts with breaking away from the old self and interest of the childhood memories and all these periods are accompanied by significant changes of various degrees for instance, all the characteristics involved in puberty such as menstrual cycle in girls and hair growth in certain part of the body in boys as well as deepening of the voice.
It is generally believed that most if not all adolescent experience difference stages of storm and stress at this period of their life, (Arnett 1999) says not all adolescents are likely to experience storm and stress, although of all stage of the life span, these years are the most volatile and also express his view further by saying that where adolescents do experience storm and stress, it is most likely to manifest in the following ways

In my opinion, in the adolescent period of children, the attention of parents should be maximized, since this is the period of the formation of the personality. I judge this by the example of my cousin, who during his teenage years lived only with his mother, since his father worked in another city and sometimes came home. During this period, my brother came under the influence of street boys who instilled in him bad habits from which he then did not get rid, which ultimately led him to death. Therefore it is very important not to lose children during this period of time and to observe them as much as possible everywhere and in everything. It is very important that there would have been good other children beside in order to imitate good examples. For example sports sections and other interesting and fascinating creative pursuits could play a decisive role in shaping the personality in this sensitive period of time.
