Teenagers Vs Toddlers

While children are influenced by many things, there are no stronger influences than that of their parents. Parents are usually their children’s first playmates, and while there world expands with each passing year, parental influence is still one of the greatest factors in determining the ways in which the child will grow and develop.

Teenagers are often compared to others, either through academics or athletics, and some end up rebelling against their parents. Teenagers tend to act, dress, speak, and do everything else differently around different groups of people, especially family members and parents. Teenagers are also pushed towards music, which creates an escape

Although parents play an immense role in a child’s life, their support is often underappreciated. They are viewed merely as a beneficial object that can either help or hinder

Kids and grown-ups both have things that they need to get done in order to do the things that don’t cause them stress. They both hold responsibilities, some more than others, but they still have responsibilities. They both feel stress once in a while and they deal with it however they see fit. Both adults and kids continue to grow even though they are different ages. Children and adults both have emotions and also get sick from time to time. Adults and children go through hard times and it is what makes them who they are. There are many similarities between adults and children but these are just a few

Children become aware that their feelings and desires are essential and must be accounted for. Growing up in a supportive environment enables children to form open and trusting relationships with their parents. However, sometimes parents fail to meet emotional or physical needs of their children. Through the failure of meeting the child’s need, eventually, leads to a more dysfunctional relationship.

“Toddlers depend on their parents/caregivers for health management, overall health influenced by their parents” (Edelman & Mandle, 2010).

In the case of Roper v. Simmons, Simmons was a seventeen-year-old teenager who committed a grotesque premeditated murder (Cornell University Law School, 2005). Subsequently, nine months after the murder Simmons turned eighteen, and the state of Missouri prosecuted Simmons as an adult, and he was convicted of murder and sentenced to death (Cornell University Law School, 2005). From the police reports and testimony, it was apparent Simmons was the instigator of the crime, but the Supreme Court ruled in 2005 that capital punishment is unconstitutional for offenders under the age of eighteen (Elrod & Ryder, 2014). Furthermore, the Supreme Court ruling inhibits the courts from prosecuting juveniles as adults without considering age and other

Toddlers and teens, what’s the difference? There is not a single one! Teenagers and toddlers are generally just about the same in every aspect besides their size, of course. If you have ever been around the two age groups, you would know, both teenagers and toddlers are always moody, demanding, hungry, and tired. Although, not every person is the same, there tends to be some pretty similar trends between most teenagers and toddlers.

On the outside teens and toddlers seem to be very different, but they turn out to actually have a lot in common. The differences can easily be seen but for their similarities you have to take a closer look. And by closer look, I mean as in their similar behavior traits, or how they very much still depend on their parents, and how their brains are both still constantly developing. The purpose is to evaluate the significant similarities in the two most developmental stages of a person's life. Teens and toddlers are similar in several ways.

It is unusual for a teenager to think to themselves, “That was like the fight mom and I got in the other night,” while witnessing a toddler pout and exhibit a temper tantrum. Because of the significant age difference, most people wouldn’t think that toddlers and teenagers are comparable, but it turns out they are more alike in brain development than once thought. Both stages are striking moments where the wiring of the brain is altered. Toddlers are learning basic skills that they will use for the rest of their lives. Teenagers are gaining experience and strengthening their skills. The two are going through very similar personal changes and have some of the same needs.

Parents have always pondered the question, ‘is there something wrong with my teenager. Years ago people thought it was dark forces. Aristotle gathered that “the young are heated by nature as drunken men by wine.” (quote) It's not that they haven't had time or experience. But actually it is that teens go through vital brain changes when they hit adolescence. This is such a vital time that it's important for parent to be with their child every step of the way.

Adults usually make most of the decisions for young children, but adolescents must make many decisions on their own. For example, when I was a child, my mother would choose what I would wear for school and what was in my lunch box. But now, I have to choose what I will wear, what I will eat, what kind of job I want to have and many more different decisions.
