Raising teenagers can be very enjoyable and also challenging at times, especially as teens go through the normative developmental stages of adolescence and navigate school, friends, and the influences of the digital and social media world. While teens confront life’s complexities, they may show signs of normal stress and anxiety; they may also exhibit intense emotions, concerning and at-risk behaviors, and mental health issues, such as depression. These difficult times may become stressful and hard on the whole family, schools, and the community.
