When realizing such a thing, one usually can’t help but wonder why exactly it occurs. You could say that young people are reckless and refuse to listen to reason, but with a closer look, that seems like a stretch, doesn’t it? After all, there are plenty of really smart youngsters out there who will still go and do something stupidly dangerous just for the thrill of it.

While it can frustrate their guardians, most of the time, teens pushing against boundaries created by adults is a sign of healthy development. However, this type of behavior can also come from emotional struggles, severe stress, or feelings of isolation caused by problems in the family or outside of it.

As the years went by, the need for such a behavior mostly vanished, yet many of the instincts remained. And the thing is, they can’t really be removed completely. That’s why if a parent tries to punish their teen for some reckless thing that they did, they’ll only end up pushing them away and possibly even giving them another reason to engage in similar behaviors.
Instead, the best way to help a young person through this period is to be there for them so they have someone to turn to and a place where they will be listened to and heard. After all, these lessons won’t be learned until the person experiences them on their own.
