During the teenage years, many young people can at times be difficult to talk to .

They often seem to dislike being questioned. They may seem unwilling to talk about

their work in school. This is a normal development at this age , though it can be very hard

for parents to understand. It is part of becoming independent of teenagers trying to be

adult while they are still growing up . Young people are usually more willing to talk if

they believe that questions are asked out of real interest and not because people are trying

to check up on them .

Parents should do their best to talk to their sons and daughters about school work and

future plant but should not push them to talk if they don't want to . Parents should also

watch for the danger signs: some young people in trying to be adult may experiment with

sex, drugs, alcohol, or smoking. Parents need to watch for any signs of unusual behaviour

which may be connected with these and get help if necessarry.
