Answer 3

In my opinion, the most stressful situation for a pre-teen or teenager to experience is the death of a parent.

As part of normal emotional development, teen years is when kids dislike or even hate their parents the most. This normal stage ensures that teens can 'individuate' and grow into independently functioning adults. But when a parent dies and the minor child is between 11 years old to at least 16 years old, that individuation process is not yet complete. Children of a deceased parent must then still go through that rebellious process with another adult. But, since other adults in the situation are undergoing their own stress and grief, the rebellion of a child comes across more as willful indifference AND an indifference to the loss of the child's parent. However, the rebellion can seem stronger and be more complicated because the focus of individuation-- separating from the parent--changes when a parent dies.

Also, teen years through the early 20s is the time when almost all children believe they are invincible, that life is forever, and nothing bad can ever happen to them. When a parent dies when a child is under age 18, then the child or children must confront mortality issues much sooner than children normally do. Rather than this making kids simply be more aware of the fact that life is not infinite, the early death of a parent can make the surviving children focus more on death than on living. For example, a child will often focus on the age of the parent when the parent died (most parents will be under 45 if they have minor children who survive them). The child wonders about his/her own life as they continue age to the age of a deceased parent. Even when an adult child who lost a parent reaches the same age as the parent had been at the time of death, the adult child often experiences a profound "Survivor's grief". "I just turned 42--which isn't that old--and my mother never got to continue her life because she died at age 42." Just as mortality issues created more obstacles for a teen, once the teen reaches the same age a parent was at the time of death that survivor grief can create obstacles for a number of years.

In the best outcome, the teen will work through individuation with another adult, AND use the new mortality awareness to choose to live more productively than they might have chosen before. For adults reaching the same age as a deceased parent, the best outcome is a renewed drive toward fulfilling personal goals even if that means making great changes in employment, schooling, family, etc. But, in the worst case for either the teen or the teen who ages to the age of a deceased parent, the person can struggle with long-term depression and feeling, generally, "lost".
