Teenage Girls

A teen in a situation where he/she must travel or walk alone to get to school might need a cell phone to stay connected with family. Teens need cell phones in case something happens when they’re with their friends. (Hatter, 5)

Firstly, most girls desire beauty and the use of cosmetics. They constantly ask for an opinion on what looks best or if their make-up looks decent. This is because they watch actresses also asking for opinions instead of deciding on their own. It causes teens to be more dependent on other views and eventually, they won't be able to do their make-up or hair without someone telling them how to do it. Consequently, teenagers become so dependent on other stand points, they won't be able to make adequate decisions in adulthood.

Many young teens dream of being the “cool” kids in high school that walk the halls like they own the place, and they constantly have a reason to be talked about, but in reality, I’ve been able to learn that independence is the key to avoiding all unnecessary drama. Throughout the past two years, I have learned to become my own person not a replica of the typical highschool girl who cares about what everybody thinks. Torpid conformity was a kind of sin; it was stupidity itself.

Teens shouldn’t solely use text messaging as communication because it affects their health, brain function, safety and privacy. Teens should not communicate through technology. Text messaging let the user think and edit what they gone say. “(Source 16)” Text messaging is affecting the growth of the brain. Texting could be harmful and could not protect you from the safety and privacy of what you share. You will also need to keep track of who sees what you share on the internet. Cell phone use is affecting teens grammar when they trying to achieve and get a high education. Using cell phones has a permanently large impact on the maturation and development on the brain.

In the emerging generation, teenagers have developed insecurities brought up by body image, advertisements, and the development of social media and its lack of privacy. These insecurities have left a mark on teenagers, and left them with fears of the future and the changes surrounding it.

Today's teenagers are different from the past teenagers because of the time and the prosperity of the technology. In the past, there was little equipment and technology, so they had to try their best to do the routines. But nowadays, I think that technology makes routines easier than before like listening to music, games and photography.

Phones and computers help us stay connected to the friends and family we might not have been able to stay in contact with without them. Teenagers can learn more about social skills when talking to friends over the phone or computer, and can even meet new friends in different places that have different cultures that they wouldn’t have been able introduced to otherwise. Often times teenagers

Being a teenager isn’t easy. At no point in history has being a teenager ever been easy. Since the moment you turn thirteen, you are plunged into a world where your thoughts are plagued and your emotions trap you. Teenage culture has become the normalization of peer pressure, drug and alcohol abuse, bullying, cliques, etc. Teenagers are the ones who decide who and what is cool or not. Teenagers create the social boundaries and characteristics that every generation has come to know. They are the control of the media and have more power than most people are willing to ever realize or understand. But they are constantly placed in boxes and labeled. Teenagers have become walking cliches and are treating poorly by many because of that.

Now that we are well into the new Millennium society has begun to recognize serious concerns with issues that teenagers have to deal with today. Some issues have always been there but are now coming to the eyes of the public to find solutions. Other issues are new trends as society begins to adapt to a faster pace of life. This study will define the common issues that the teenagers are facing in today.

Teenagers are their own worst enemies; when a bunch of girls are talking in a group you can bet that they say something mean about some other girl or some other guy maybe without even noticing. Every teenager does it and teenagers all know that every teenager does it. When girls walk through the hallways at school or anywhere with other teenagers, especially when they’re alone, they worry

   Teens are under more stress and have higher expectations than ever before. It’s a well-known fact that being a teen is hard and accompanies its own arrangement of troubles. Teens are expected to do extremely well in school and to have an idea on what they want to do after school. Teens want to feel like they are welcomed and wanted from their peers and they will do anything to fit in. Teenagers are also expected to teach themselves in school and in life. Teens have more stress and expectations on them than every before.

As a matter of fact, teenage girls are not the only ones who fall victim to the ideal of beauty. Teenage boys are going through very similar situations. Media and advertisements set their standards for men to be tall, muscular, board upper body, v-line and have beards etc. Neither males nor females live without having standards set up for them by society and media. “Widely held perceptions of beauty and perfection can have a deep and lasting cultural impact on both women and men.” Some impact is that these standards will continue to exist in our future culture and both genders will never feel comfortable in their own skin/body. Both men and women would continue to judge themselves and their beauty. Magazines and advertisements usually have images of men without their shirts in order to show off their muscles and to attract customers. This makes members of society expect to see a six pack,v-line and pectorals when a male takes off their shirt. This gives teenage boys fear to take off their shirt when going to the beach or smaller situations like going inside a pool because they are scared to be criticized for not being muscular. Magazines display images of these fake models for both men and women which creates intimidation.“Study of mass media magazines discovered that women’s magazines had 10.5 times more advertisements and articles promoting weight loss than men’s magazines did (as cited in Guillen & Barr.1944).” The ideal of beauty targets women more than men. In

Based on their social media and smartphone usage and habits, research has shown more inherent dangers for adolescent girls than boys. The Journal of Economics and Social Sciences reports that 96.7% of adolescent girls surveyed have cell phones and only 84.3% of adolescent boys do (Sisman, et al.). Adolescent girls are more invested in social media because they post pictures of themselves, while boys only show photos of the activities they are engaged in (Sisman, et al.). Research has shown that spending much time on smartphones and social media may cause loneliness for adolescents. One of the

The teenagers in today's society are not much different than the teenagers 30 years ago.Some of the aspects of the teen life have changed but the basics remain the same. Every teen in any era has that awkward phase where they are transitioning from a child to a young adult.In that transitional period teens bodys are changing and hormones are raging. adolescence is the biggest transition period you go through in life. when you are a teenager you have that the pressure to fit it and also having an identity crisis. Teenagers are going through a roller coaster of emotions you feel self consistence or depressed. teens have a lot of stress and pressure to deal with social life,school work,and home life it can be overwhelming. As teens we are

My first wrong choice was when I stepped out the front door on my way to the party, deliberately disobeying my parents. The second was getting myself drunk. And the third will live in infamy in my mind for all eternity; I drove while intoxicated. But I’m a teenager right? I’m invincible? Wrong. Things can go wrong, and they did. They went very wrong. That night, 2 people were killed by my hand and 4 more were sent into the hospital with life changing injuries, all because of my “nothing can touch me” attitude and ignorant decisions. I was consumed by a selfish hunt for the “full high school experience,” and didn’t stop to think about what I was really doing to myself, my sanity, and to the people all around me. Just how terrible did my decisions turn out that night? Unfortunately, I’m not the only one behaving so foolishly. While many young adults during the times of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet often got caught in the moment without looking forward, unfortunately a large number of teenagers today still struggle to think of the consequences and impacts of their actions.
