Challenges Teen face today

            Some of the challenges teen face today are things such as depression.11 percent of young people get depression before age 18. It can harm your educational and social life. They also face things such as bullying and now even more more with social media being around.It can cause problems with your physical and mental health. They also suffer stress from school and how to balance everything out. Add to that body image and self esteem is a really big one that most teens suffer through.

             I am challenged with stress about a lot of things but mostly school. I am trying to manage everything, from cheer , to my grades to trying to do lots of other things. I am actually doing my homework on free time at school and trying to not to be a procrastinator.The amount of stress school gives me is not healthy and instead of giving us homework all the time teachers maybe should realize we need a break also and we have lots of other things to do rather than do homework all the time.

                  Being a ctr person helps because no matter what you will do what is best for you and not worry about what other people say.

              I can link websites that may help other teens also i might talk to them or make them laugh.   

  Reflection: the greatest need that teenagers have is self confidence and Independence.We need this because in order to achieve great things  you have to believe you can.
