CHANGES on ADOLESCENTS

 Adolescence period begins between the ages of 11-12 and this process is a painful process for the child because of the rapid physical and emotional changes. In this blog, I am going to talk about physical and emotional changes and the effects of these changes on behavior.

PHYSICAL CHANGES ON BOYS

  • Testicular enlargement                                                   
  • Appearance of hair in the genital area
  • The appearance of hairs such as beard and mustache in the armpits and face
  • Change of voice
  • Increase in body mass
  • Height growth
  • The appearance of skin problems such as acne,etc.


PHYSICAL CHANGES ON GIRL                                             

  • Breast enlargement
  • Armpit hair [starts earlier than men]
  • Weight and height increase
  • Beginning of the menstrual cycle
  • Skin problems such as acne


EMOTIONAL CHANGES ON ADOLESCENTS

  • Desire for Privacy: They want to hang out on their own, away from family.
  • Social Antagonism: The conflict of the adolescent, who falters in the face of many changes, also causes conflict with his environment and family. They can get into many fights.
  •  Increased Emotionality: They may experience negativities such as pessimism, overreacting to small things, feeling lonely, thinking that they are not loved.
  • Lack of Self-Confidence: They constantly feel inadequate as they are not aware of their potential.
  • Interest in the opposite sex
