Conclusion
The adolescent period is a stormy one in which several
types of problems emerge in all cultural societies. As
adolescents are highly sensitive and self-conscious, they
easily get emotional and frustrated. So there must be some
changes in the rearing practices of the parents. They must
teach the sense of responsibility to their children.
Apart from the parents, the school teachers are partly
responsible for moulding and shaping the conduct and
character of the students. So, they should inculcate in
them good manners and the human values and make them
realize the importance of duties and responsibilities that
one has to perform for the welfare of the society.
