Social changes and emotional changes: what to expect in adolescence
During adolescence, you’ll notice changes in the way your child interacts with family, friends and peers. Every teen’s social and emotional development is different. Your child’s unique combination of genes, brain development, environment, experiences with family and friends, and community and culture shape development.
Social changes and emotional changes show that your child is forming an independent identity and learning to be an adult.

- searching for identity: young people are busy working out who they are and where they fit in the world. This search can be influenced by gender, peer group, cultural background, media, school and family expectations
- seeking more independence: this is likely to influence the decisions your child makes and the relationships your child has with family and friends
- seeking more responsibility, both at home and at school
- looking for new experiences: the nature of teenage brain development means that teenagers are likely to seek out new experiences and engage in more risk-taking behaviour. But they’re still developing control over their impulses
