In the teen years, young people change in many ways. The body changes, so do thoughts and feelings. These changes become an important part of teenage life.
Teens may often harm their health by developing bad lifestyles. Bad eating habits and less sleep may cause lots of problems. For example, they may often feel tired and have no interest in anything. Some begin to smoke, which is bad for their health.
Teens' feelings usually change, too. They may get angry more easily. Other changes include becoming depressed more easily and feeling nervous. Some teens may start to keep secrets to themselves and refuse to talk with their parents or teachers, and they always show their anger and dislike for another person or group.
During the teen years, people will usually have some problems that may cause other problems. One reason for this may be that teens are never taught about the changes that are taking place and they do not know how to deal with the problems they have.

"Everyone makes mistakes in life, but that doesn't mean they have to pay for them for the rest of their life. Sometimes wise people make foolish choices. It doesn't mean they're foolish…it means they're improving!"
