teenage is the most sensitive age of one's life. it's what a child recieves from the world during this period that determines his/her future. And i m one of those. so i need some guidance and suggestions from all of u here. (i believe mylot has most of the members elder than me). from all the experiences that u all have had in ur life, what should be a teenager's best strategy for life? i would like to know if books can do the trick, if there are some life changing books that u hav read, or a game plan u've figured out that can get a young boy on the ideal path. do help me if u think u can.

Book , friends, parents, and of course self thinking is what a teenager needs while growing up. read good books can change the teenager mind and determine how well is the teenager. Future is determine by yourself, what you want and what you need only you will know. So you can looks for friends that have similar hobbies or interest, they can teach you something and you can share your opinion with them. the environment is another facts to build a good teenager, the environment that you live in will change your life.

Yes,I absolutely agree with you,teenage is the most sensitive age of one's life.At this time you have much more energy to do the variety of things but you lack lesson learnt by hard experience of live. At this time one must set his goal and should concentrate fully to achieve it.At this age one should not doubt his parents' intention & should have faith in them .Parents are always present their for your help & guidance.So, set a goal &go for it with full power utilizing every source available so that your mind is never free for useless mind flickering things. Good Luck.

This question is asking for your guidance . He is not asking whether you are agree or not .So, in my opinion this is an irrelevent answer.

be positive and self confident.you have all the abilities to becoming a great person.this is the age when you feel that whatever anybody says,it is wrong-and not in your best interests.amazingly we feel our parents are our enemies too.so you should understand that this is only the influence of the age. therefore be patient and think carefully about your decisions and also others perceptions.this will enable you to go through this phase joyously.all the best -teen.

Teenage is a very impotant period in a person's life. Be with the good people. Try to get associated in a good spirit filled church.Parents are the real people who love you.They may be bit harsh at times but be positive.Just know that they love you than anybody in life.Try to read Bible. You may be following any religion, Jesus loves you.

yes, teenagers is important in one life. I think you can get advice from your parent first, and second, what kind of friend you make is important, because that will affect you. third, work hard to get the entry to a good school almost important, because the people around you make you have a good life opinion.

teenage life depends on the environment you live in.its different in different countries.but one thing is sure as it depend upon his future life.it has a great influence on all your life.its a stage you have to take a step that you are one amongthe millions living here and you hav to take a place for yourself.in this stage you cannot make your on decisions alone.your decisions depend on your friends they have great influence on you.parents should have a hidden control on you.so it depends upon the friends you select and your parents who should have atleast half control over you.you have to mould yourself as a different being which should be combination of all the good you see in your elder people.

HI kandarp This is karthick, I accept that teenage is the most sensitive age in ones life, truely speaking i am not a guy who reads book, according to me internet is a global learing source where we can learn both good and bad. Use it in the right way , Listen to the advice of your elders(which most teen dont do)I think this can get a young boy on the ideal path.
