All of us go through some difficult times as we approach teenage years. It's the age when we have to deal with the most in our life. This transition (过渡) from childhood to adulthood is for some, but rough for others. The most important thing about being a teenager is . When we are teenagers, we would get blamed or even punished for anything wrong we do.
It's all not so about being a teenager though. We don't have to have our take us to somewhere we want to go or we couldn't go before. We can have with friends or even alone, which we couldn’t have because we were too to know what pleasure is! It’s a very enjoyable time of life. During this age, we are old enough to what is good for us, and make decisions without others.
But like the saying goes, “All good things must come to an end, but all bad things can continue .” During this period, we are having much for our studies. If we don’t pass, we won't get jobs, and things will take a turn for the . With the present world economy in , we have to do really, really well in our 49 for a job. Adults say that their is the hardest part of life. But I think the transition from a kid to an adult is much than being already an adult. What we do in our teenage years will what we become and how we lead our life in the future.
In conclusion, it is quite that parents put much pressure on an already stressed out teenager. If they realized that, living condition for teenagers would be much better. for the teens ourselves we should get to know what is best for us. What’s more, we should understand the right of life we choose at this age can make us happy for the rest of our existence.
