Teenagers often face a lot of fears. Since they are undergoing a lot of inevitable changes, it is normal for them to be anxious and uneasy. To help them with that, we need to keep reminding them that it is all just part of the process.
29. It is OK to Not Be OK
There is still a stigma that crying and “not being ok” is a symbol of weakness and fragility. We need to do away with that idea once and for all.
