A Crucial Point In Life

Teenagers today are growing up in an environment where the digital stage is inescapable. Further, when it comes to teens and social media, the need for privacy largely reduced to nothing but fantasy -they post content at will on their profiles and expect it to be seen by potentially millions of strangers.

Teenagers use Snapchat because it's a location-based app, which means people can know who both left or has been to that place which only leads to friendships getting strong.

Teenagers Use psychology as a weapon. It is something that is aware of its position and tries as hard as possible to maintain dominance through images of newness, order, sexuality and violence

When we reach the age of 13 our bodies undergo major changes. These changes are different for everyone. This is where puberty begins and the teenage years start. Changes such as increased height, hormones, and weight gain influence how we act, look and feel about ourselves. Social media makes it worse because it distorts the impact of being a teenager today by showing us a false reflection of what is going on compared to what it actually is like

Teenagers have to navigate many conflicting social and emotional forces during the critical developmental point of their life.

While adolescence is often associated with mental growth and development, it also means huge physical changes too.

Young people develop skills, grieve insecurities when looking at the state of the world, try to figure out who they are in the world-all this happens during teenage years.

Teenagers are also burdened with adult troubles such as body pressure and media bombardment-they must juggle these burdens during this key stage in their life.
