Young people, however, are also suffering from stress with different causes. Below are some factors that contribute to those youngsters‟ unhealthy levels of stress. School Pressure Teenagers often feel stressed about academic and extracurricular demands. Students feel pressure to complete daily homework, finish projects and study for exams. In addition to the quest for good grades, teens may also participate in extracurricular activities, such as sports, student council, cheerleading and clubs. The added pastimes may contribute to teenage stress and anxiety if the activities arc competitive and require scheduling that cuts into study and relaxation time. Peer Pressure Although teens may have a solid group of friends, their peers may pressure them to hang out instead of studying or experiment with drugs, alcohol or sexual activities that go against their morals or family rules. Peer pressure, bullying on campus and harassment may distract teens from studying, leading them to feel additional stress and anxiety. Family Problems Teenagers can also feel stress at home because of family pressures and problems. Arguments with siblings, disagreements with parents over rules and expectations and the need to consistently care for younger siblings may also contribute to teen stress. Sense of Loss Teens may also feel stress and anxiety when experiencing a sense of loss. “Loss” can mean the end of a relationship, friendship or cherished extracurricular activity. Breaking up with a boyfriend or best friend, for example, may lead them to doubt their self-worth or feel anxious about attending school or social functions because of their change in social status. A. Decide whether the following sentences are true (T) or false (F). 1. Stress is a problem of both adults and young people. 2. Youngsters can‟t be stressed if they do well in their classes. 3. Peer pressure can make teens unable to concentrate on studying. 4. The family is always the best place, so it doesn‟t cause stress for teenagers. 5. Some problems in the social relationship can lead teens to doubt or anxiety. B. Answer the questions. 6. What can the added pastimes cause to teens?
