How will puberty affect your life: Relationship with Family

You may also feel pressure to have more responsibilities at home and to focus on your studies.

Puberty is a time of big changes, not just in your body, but in how you think, feel, and relate to others. It can be confusing to be in between two stages. You’re not quite a kid anymore, but still not quite an adult. Sometimes you may feel that adults still treat you like a child, and other times that they expect you to act more grown up.

It is important to remember that your family is also getting used to the fact that you’re growing up. Sometimes they need some time to figure things out, too! Hopefully, you can figure it out together.
