The Pressures of Teenage LIfe

Whether you've been a teen or are one right now we all know the pressure of this stage in life. In psychology they say that this stage in our life is when we are looking for belonging so that we can figure out who we are. This is the time in your life that your not a child but not yet an adult, it's  pretty awkward age, your just stuck in the middle.
     In your teenage years thats when you are in highschool, this is a time where in my opinion life begins. You take your ACT/SAT's which can potientially determine the college/university you may attend. This is, in my opinion, one of the most stressful times in life. Between classes, studying, exams, state test and extracirricular activities how are we suppose to have any time to breathe!
  But wait! It gets better! Theres parents! Im fortunate enough to have a great mom and dads not too bad but that is not everyones case. Most teens have to deal with their parents craziness. Then, dare I say it,siblings. That adds stress on top of everything else, especially if they are not in your age group, its difficult to deal with all together.
