7. CHALLENGES AND ISSUES AMONG

• Adolescence is a time when we begin to discover who
we are. But while we are learning about ourselves, we
also experience many challenges that affect our self-
esteem, behavior, and decisions. Some of these include:

ADOLESCENTS
Physical appearance, Identity development, Gender identity,
Social cognition, Impulsivity and risk-taking, Sexual behaviors
• Antisocial or delinquent behavior

9. LET’S EXPLAIN THEM
ONE BY ONE WITH
SIMPLE EXAMPLES:

10. 1. PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
• During adolescence, our body goes through many
changes because of puberty.This includes things like
acne, height growth, weight gain, or voice changes.
These changes can sometimes make us feel insecure
or embarrassed.

11. 1. PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
Example:
• A teenager might feel shy or uncomfortable because
they have acne, or because their body is not developing
as fast as others in their class.

12. 2. IDENTITY DEVELOPMENT
• This is the stage where we begin to ask,“Who am I?”
or “What do I want to be in life?” It’s part of figuring
out our personality, interests, and goals.

13. 2. IDENTITY DEVELOPMENT
Example:
• A teen might realize they love drawing
and start thinking about becoming an
artist.That’s part of identity development.

14. 3. GENDER IDENTITY
• This means understanding how you feel inside about
being male, female, or something else. It’s about how
you see your own gender.

15. 3. GENDER IDENTITY
Example:
• Someone who is born male may feel more
comfortable living as a female that’s their
gender identity

16. 4. SOCIAL COGNITION
(PERSONAL FABLE AND
IMAGINARY AUDIENCE)
• Personal fable is the feeling that “no one
understands me.”Imaginary audience is the belief
that everyone is watching or judging you.

17. 4. SOCIAL COGNITION
(PERSONAL FABLE AND
IMAGINARY AUDIENCE)
Example:
• You might feel embarrassed walking into class because
you think everyone is staring at your clothes even if
they’re not.

18. 5. IMPULSIVITY AND RISK-TAKING
• Teenagers sometimes do things without thinking
about the consequences, often just for fun or to
fit in.

19. 5. IMPULSIVITY AND RISK-TAKING
Example:
• Riding a motorbike without a helmet just to look
cool in front of friends.

20. 6. SEXUAL BEHAVIORS
• Adolescents may start becoming curious about sex or
romantic relationships. It’s important to handle this
responsibly.

21. 6. SEXUAL BEHAVIORS
Example:
• Two teens might enter a relationship, but they
need guidance on respect, consent, and
boundaries.

22. 7.ANTISOCIAL AND
DELINQUENT BEHAVIOR
•This includes behaviors that go against rules or
hurt others, like lying, skipping school, or
bullying.

23. 7.ANTISOCIAL AND
DELINQUENT BEHAVIOR
Example:
• A teen might join a group that vandalizes walls or
bullies others online which is a harmful behavior.
