About this ebook

Teen Adulthood is a book specifically designed to examine the transition from teen to adulthood. It focuses on adolescent development, and notes several changes the teenage body undergoes as it transits to the stage of adolescence. As the book examines the major developmental changes that occur in adolescence, it also looks into the emerging adult's cognitive mindset, their behavior towards their parents as their desire for independence and freedom ignites. 

 

In this book, you will learn: 

  • Teenhood (Teen Appearance, Teen Attitude) 
  • The teen's journey to adulthood (physical development, cognitive development and mindset, emotional and social development) 
  • The emerging adulthood relationship with parents (desire for independence and freedom) 
  • The emerging adulthood perspective about love, sex and marriage 
  • The end stage of emerging adulthood 

 

Teen Adulthood is just one of those few books that give you a perfect elucidation about teen and adulthood—the teen's transition to adulthood. You should get this book to know how the teen's physical, cognitive body develops, the teen's emotional and social mindset in the course of transition.

    The book has a very pleasant light-hearted style, which makes you want to trust what he says. The author writes about what young adults need to know about life, and I found myself agreeing with everything. The range of topics is almost comprehensive. A very pleasant must-read!

    This was a gift for my nephew’s 18th birthday and he loved it. It was filled with very useful information that all young people should know. I would buy this again for any young person approaching adulthood.

    This book has lots of good advice for older teens and 20-somethings. It can even serve as a nice refresher for an "adult." The advice in the book covers a wide variety of topics, and although some of the advice may seem common sense to older adults, it's stuff lots of young people haven't even stopped to consider. Plus, Boyle includes plenty of wit and humor!

    I thoroughly enjoyed this book, which is chock-full of good tidbits about life and acting like a grown-up. While I may not have agreed with everything he said (who truly believes that Butterfingers are the best candy bar?!), I loved how detailed he got about elements like how to write a bangin' cover letter and how empathy really does make for a better life.

INTRODUCTION

Teenhood

Ask the average adult what comes to mind first when they speak about teenagers, and one is likely to hear a myriad of negative adjectives swirling around sex, drugs, and wild behavior. Although adults remember the teen years as a stage of development between childhood innocence and adulthood responsibility, the term teenager does not bring to mind sympathetic understanding Adolescent or adolescence are words that allow people to think more in terms of development and less in judgment.

Teenagers are not children. A child is seen as good, loving, innocent, vulnerable, carefree, curious, always reliant on their parents, and naïve. Ten is the magic number for many of the participants in the focus group, and marks the end of childhood. I think when you hit ten, noted one mother with younger kids. When you're eleven, even if you're not a teenager, you're still no longer a child. Teens are not young adults yet. A young adult is a college-age person that displays responsibility maturity, and knowledge. It's when they become human again, as an older woman says. Real responsibility marks the beginning of adulthood. You have to take some responsibility for yourself," an adolescent father said.

Another said, You start making certain decisions and trying to follow them. Teens are between childhood's precious innocence and the responsible maturity of adulthood. They are able to take decisions explained a mother of younger children. But added another, not ready for what's going on around them. People recognize that the teen years are a stage of development, but the term teenager doesn't bring the sense of sympathy and understanding to the fore. Instead, teenager brings to mind the teens ' negative actions and the risks they encounter. Adolescent or adolescence are terms that give people a much more compassionate mentality. Instead of sex and drugs, people think of' confusion,'' uncertainty,'' insecurity,'' reaching out,'' searching,'' challenging,'' experimental,'' growing pains,'' immature,' and' a lot of advice required.' While' youth' definition is not confined to representing just the teen years, it also places people in a more desirable attitude. The term youth leads people to think about carefree, excitement, teachable, impressive, eager, naïve, immaturity, free-spirited, and power. There is a feeling of anxious suspense behind the concerns regarding wild, obstinate teenagers. They agree the teenagers have mastered their fundamental values and are now being put to the test. They still need help from parents but are ready to begin making their own decisions. That doesn't say, however, this they feel the job of raising their children is over. We try different things all over, said an older woman. We go back and forth this way.

Another said, but they need help. They have the foundation, a mother with younger children clarified. We have got to build on that. Adults have a certain feeling of teenage excitement. They're full of untapped potential that can be unnerving but thrilling as well. The Teenagers are like a Cracker Jacks case. Each package contains a reward, proposed a father with younger children. It's a box, and when you open it up, you never know what you're going to get out of it. It's like a race car that's neutral, said another parent with younger kids. "We only revive and revive and revive, and you have to hit the right key to get them in gear, and then they'll go. There is the Energy. We just need to get that in place.

Adults perceive adolescence as challenging and difficult. During peer pressure, they wonder whether teenagers are going to make the right decisions. Parents especially need to connect and be interested in the lives of teens. For the communities that most see, the only function is to coordinate youth activities. Because of their strong sense of parental responsibility and their political skepticism, center the attention

CHAPTER ONE: THE TEEN’S WORLD

Adults are struggling with the teen years partly because they trust the importance of parental involvement, but they recognize that teens are beyond the point where parents can protect them from the realities of life and difficult choices. Teens face challenges and choices that children don't undergo, but they still don't have the maturity and responsibility of adults. If they could, parents would reverse such experiences and protect teens from emotional stresses, thereby allowing them to take on more responsibility.

On one side, the significance of parental involvement is emphasized. Once the kids get older, said a teen's mum, the parents do not realize they need to find a daycare. To be frank, it states that teenagers need to be monitored more than they do when they're in and below-grade school. A lot of teenage parents have to juggle their schedules to be home with their kids. Around 2:30, he is off. That's right at the time my children are asleep, a mother of a child demonstrated. We never go unregulated. Whether they are doing something or not, someone is always there, one of us is always available. He chooses not to try such roles as that fits right now for us. At the same particular time, they recognize that teens often stay outside of their parents ' control. They know the parents can't be there when this kid pressures them to do the narcotics in the toilet (Mother of the younger kids). If people say they're putting a block on Television or the Internet, that's great, a teen's father explained. There's nothing wrong with that, so you can't block some link with everything that goes on during the day. When they go to school, they have friends...That is something you can't place a cap on. Teenagers are faced with social pressures and decisions it a kid does not face. I think they get access to a large number of things that we as adults deal with, an older woman said. sex, drug, divorce, abortion, gangs, weapons, abuse are directed at them. By the age of 10, they are faced with all these items, and at 13, they are met with them. I don't believe they have the emotional maturity or analytical ability to be able to handle them. At 13, I feel like a little boy, a teen's mother observed. "But nowadays, the 13-year-olds don't feel like 13-year-olds.

There are plenty of 13-year-olds who are no longer just virgins. One admitted, at the age of 13, they realize what you learned when you were 25 and married. My eight-year-old asks me what her sex hypothesis is just from watching commercials on tv, a younger child's mother said. Another mother mentioned that her "daughter would be 13 years old and sometimes she just says,' Mom, if you don't have your dukes
