As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult. 1 Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!
With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about making choices. In this way you can make healthy balanced decisions. 2 You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.
Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. 3 But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself.
