Frustration In Teens
Frustration is a common emotion for teens. Adolescents face the stress of school, parental expectations, the need to fit in with a peer group and the desire to find their place in society. Although frustration is a normal part of growing up, learning to cope with frustration constructively is challenging for some teens. As a parent, learning about your teen’s frustrations and guiding her toward healthy coping skills can help her thrive in these frustrating years. Causes
Teens feel frustration for many of the same reasons as adults: social pressures, obligations, relationship issues and confusion about the future. In teenagers, these issues are often compounded by hormonal changes. Teens might also feel frustrated in their struggle to establish an identity and assert their independence while still following family and school rules. In addition to these common sources of frustration, like adults, teens might feel frustrated when they are depressed, anxious or experiencing a learning disability such as: attention deficit hyperactivity disorder
