The Kaleidoscope of Teenage

If childhood is the most innocent part of anyone’s living years then undoubtedly teenage or adolescence can be the most exciting one. This is the period when human beings comes in close contact with themselves as most of us remain clueless what is happening to our body and our emotions until and unless science and solid parenting comes to our rescue.

The word adolescence has been derived from a Latin word called 'Adolescere' which means to grow up and it basically refers to the transitional stage between puberty and adulthood declared legally. Historically teenage has never been considered as a separate part of human life as human life in the days of yore consisted of only two subdivisions i.e. childhood and adulthood. It was only in the 20th century that teenage aspect of life has been given its due importance and for this Stanley Hall is given credit for coming up with “Adolescence”, a study made by him in 1904.

Teenage is not only a fascinating period of life but also a risky one as the chances of the girl or the boy falling victim to a bad company is high and if this is not monitored by elders it can lead to various problems, the scars of which might remain forever. One of the most common teenage problems throughout the world is drug addiction. Generally it in girls and boys in the age group of 17-19 experiment with drugs just to feel the thrill of it and unfortunately it becomes a regular habit so much so that the boy or the girl cannot live without it even for an hour.

It is then intervention is the need of the hour and proper treatment should be given out either at home or at rehabilitation centers. In order to find out rehab centers one just need to Google or use any search engines he or she wants to use and just type drug treatment in the search bar. For e.g. a native of San Francisco will type drug treatment San Francisco and a native of Paris will write drug treatment Paris. An important aspect of all troubled teen programs is that more than medical support it requires emotional support so the family should always stand by their teenage child in times of crisis.
