What do the teenagers say are the worst bits about puberty?

Answer 1

One of the challenging aspects is just the complications of puberty itself. It is embarrassing if you are a male when you voice cracks, when you are a female it is embarrassing at first to buy feminine products (i.e tampons, pads, etc.) or start your period without any notice. Another challenging aspect is trying to fit in. You are too young to have your drivers license but you are too old to be treated like you are 8 or something. This can create troubled relationships with your parents because you feel embarrassed to be around them in public. It can also be challenging to fit in with others or feel "normal" puberty can cause you to feel extra self conscious about yourself because you can be prone to weight gain, acne, etc.
