CHALLENGES
OF
ADOLESCENCE
PERSONALITY

2016 stressed that
intellectual development
among adolescent takes a
rapid pace to a point where
they see meaning as well
as opportunities on all
kinds of situations. In
search for oneself, they are
faced with a increasing
number of problems
conducive to emotional
tension.

FREEDOM FROM PARENTAL
SUPERVISION
. The adolescent faces the problem of
achieving self-discipline while still
under parental control and
development upon the family for
support. Restriction of activities or
imposition of punishments may be
regarded as a threat to their sense of
autonomy and feeling of self-
importance that can result to the
destruction of a healthy emotional

CONSTRUCTIVE USE OF
LEISURE TIME.
Activities such as team
sports, club activities, and
hobbies are important to
prepare the way for adult
enjoyment and
participation in social and
civic groups.

SEXUAL
RELATIONSHIPS.
 Emotional difficulties arise because of
incorrect or inadequate information
concerning sex. Many adolescent are made
to feel that questions concerning sex are
improper and shameful. Strong parental
attachment usually prevents the adolescent
from making serious commitments to a
relationship since it is difficult for them to
entertain the thought of leaving home.
When one decides to have commitments,
he or she likely to look for qualities similar to
those of a parent.

PEER ADJUSTMENT.
The peer culture acts as a transition
period before reaching adult status in
the community. Developing a sense of
responsibility depends upon the
satisfactions of social skills which
enables one to become acquainted
with other young people. Failure to
develop these skills with others can
lead to feelings of inadequacy and
indifference

INTELLECTUAL MATURATION.
During this period, attitudes are
formed, which are like remain
relatively unchanged throughout
life. Ways of thinking are being
developed which will lead to
either: healthy problem solving
techniques, expanded intellectual
curiosity, and interest; or to a
narrow viewpoint; faculty habits,
and poverty of concepts.

VOCATIONAL CHOICE
Many adolescent make little
or no preparation for an
occupation. They take
courses in school which are
easy, or which are required
of them; not those that will
be of practical value in later
life.

EMOTIONAL MATURITY.
To achieve emotional maturity,
adolescent must learn to channel
his or her impulses into
constructive endeavors. Their
actions should be socially
acceptable responses to the
demands of society. They should
take responsibility for their own
actions without blaming others.

DEVELOPMENT OF LIFE
GOALS.
 One factor in attaining maturity involves the
development of life goals and a healthy
personal philosophy. Personal integrity
depends upon the formation of moral and
ethical values which one respects and can
accept him –or herself. He or she should
expect and accept relationships which
involves duties and responsibilities; and
must be willing to be disciplined in order to
reach the desired long time term goals.
