How to use "Adolescent" in context?
The adolescent is a stage of development that typically occurs during the period from puberty to the late twenties. This stage is characterized by a wide range of physical, psychological, and social changes. During adolescence, the body completes its transformation from childhood to adulthood and the brain undergoes rapid development. Adolescents undergo a wide range of emotional changes, many of which are gradual and ongoing throughout their lives, but others that may temporarily peak during this stage. During adolescence, many individuals experiment with their attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors, which can lead to increased confusion and risk-taking.
