Adolescence is a complex period filled with various changes and demands. Teens must balance social and academic pursuits while navigating the hormonal and physical changes that are an inherent part of adolescence. Additionally, their growing desire for autonomy often results in a need to distance themselves from their parents as they prove their ability to take care of things on their own. Because of the characteristics that are integral to this stage of life, I firmly believe that all adolescents benefit from a personal space where they could explore their inner worlds and solidify their identities.
