Getting through the current semester with good grades and finding employment after graduating were among the biggest stressors. The largest fears about leaving study centered around securing enjoyable, relevant employment and paying off student loan debt.

The Norton Online Living Report surveyed 9,000 people in 12 countries about internet usage and the social impact of technology. It found that the internet has made relationships better for 70% of people by making it easier to stay connected with tools like video chat, social media, and photo sharing. However, many people and parents feel kids spend too much time online. While technology helps families connect across distances, proper supervision and rules are still needed to protect kids from online risks. The report also found that while most people take security steps, many are still vulnerable due to issues like not updating software or passwords regularly.

This document discusses challenges in the parent-child relationship during emerging adulthood. It notes that both parents and children must acknowledge the child's growing independence and maturity. Relationship quality is influenced by earlier interactions and family history. Family disruptions like divorce can weaken relationships, while financial support from parents improves children's chances of success. While some parents take highly involved roles, others are more hands-off. Children occasionally "boomerang" back to parents' homes after brief independence. Damaged relationships due to abuse or instability profoundly affect children's development.

Early adulthood spans from ages 20-40 and is marked by significant transitions. Physically, individuals are at their peak but also take on new social roles like marriage and parenthood. Socially, people follow a "social clock" of life stages around relationships and independence from parents. Friendships evolve and cross-gender friendships may decline after marriage. Establishing a career can be challenging as expectations meet reality. Combining work and family demands good balance and flexibility. Maintaining health is important during this period of peak physical ability. Overall, early adulthood involves navigating relationships, responsibilities and self-sufficiency as individuals transition to adulthood.
