My definition of a teenager: "An adolescent is one who is not yet fully an adult, either in body, soul, or mind, yet is also not fully a child any longer; an adolescent retains elements of childhood while showing news signs of growth towards adulthood each day."
The first chapter confirmed my idea of what an adolescent to me is, however, it also added more to my already complex definition. They are all completely different individuals, like any person, and yet have some common tendencies. Teenagers are self-centered, unpredictible, and moody, as well as energetic and curious. They are living in a world where they are constantly changing in body, soul, and mind, experiencing "firsts" and defining moments.
