' The teenage years are the best years of one's life. ' Would you agree with this view?

Teenage years are filled with energy, vitality and youth. With these three qualities I feel that teenage years should be the best years of one's life. A teenager is the transition stage of a child into an adult. Therefore, in this stage of life, teenagers are exposed to many new challenges and exposed to a widened social circle where they meet new friends and establish more connections with the world. Teenage years would be the most fun because we get to have fun with our friends. Many teenagers meet their true friends during this period of time whereby, they see their friends giving them support every time they suffer a setback. Friends play a very important role in our lives because we understand each other and give one another moral support. We have lesser worries because we need not bother about money matters. All we need to do is to make sure that we do well in our academic work and maintain good conduct in school. As a teenager, we are also given a lot of opportunities to learn new capabilities and develop our character. Such opportunities are usually offered by the school and we actually benefit a lot from them. With youth and being filled with energy, teenagers can engage in activities they like best. Teenagers are full of strength and ability to experience new insights which will in turn allow them to gain more knowledge. Besides that, teenagers are also curious about what is happening around them. They try hard not to lose out on any single bit of information or things happening in their life.

The teenage years are also the most meaningful years of one's life because teenagers start to have ambitions of their own at this period of time. They are certain of what they want to attain and set goals of themselves. With their goals in mind, teenagers have the motivation to improve themselves and work hard in order to achieve their target. However, teenagers tend to face peer pressure because they often compare themselves with their schoolmates. They want to achieve things which their peers have achieved in order to prove that they are capable. And when they find out that they are unable to achieve their goals, they fall into depression and resort to foolish acts. Hence, in this sensitive stage, teenagers need their parents to guide them and help them develop the right mindset. Teenagers who claim that they do not fell any family-warmth at home often turn to self-mutilation. They inflict pain on themselves by cutting their wrists or any parts of their body. Some even get into bad companies and do things which are against the law. Most of these teenagers just want to get more attention from their parents.

Teenagers tend to think more in depth than a kid and less complex than an adult. Hence, they see the world better than anyone else. They live in a world of their own, with a lot of secrets.

In conclusion, I feel that the teenage years of one’s life is definitely the best years of one’s life. With careful guidance by teachers and parents, teenagers will definitely be able to lead the correct path and believe that they are actually leading the best days of their life! (:
