How to use «Teenager» in context?
Teenager might seem like a child or an immature adult, but that is not always the case. In fact, most teenagers are going through a lot of change and growing up. They are adjusting to their new body and brain, trying to figure out who they are and what they want in life. For some, this process is a struggle; for others, it is a joy. However, the teenage years are not just about enjoyment and growth. They can also be a time of trial and testing, as the young person tries to figure out who they are and where they fit in the world.
