I believe that all of you already know, what is teenager period and who are people inside. we used to hear that teenager is the most beautiful period, teenager is the most impressive period, teenager is unforgettable period and many more you can find. but, do you really know why people said so? because, in theology teenager period is the transition period between the childhood period and adult period. in this period people start to find who are they self and love to try and find something new. the would find a lot of problems in their ages and will try to learn and solve the problem. Therefore, Father of Psychology, Stanley Hall said that teenager period is 'storm and stress time'.
Generally, people in this period have the same character. as like what we have discussed before, they have many wish and always want to try doing something new, because self confidence starts to grow. they also full of energy. That is why they look like so aggressive to what they want. The want to show their existence by doing anything that make other people maybe care of them. Teenager behavior is influenced by their idols.
Now days, we see some of teenager achieve many accomplishments. in the other side we also see some of teenager fall into negative things. They become robber, beggar, drug user, and many more. All these happen because they live in different environment. Teenagers who live in positive environment will behave positively while teenager who live in negative environment will have negative behavior. For example a boy who lives in uncontrolled environment, he will do something bad like smoking, drug using and so on. that is why people need education in this period to help them live to be smart and productive. good education also help them to grow become religious character and excellent.
