Subject: Problem of stress among teenagers
Sir:
I am writing this letter to express my deep concern over the serious problem of stress among the teenagers. All agree that adolescence is the pivotal phase in any human’s development and growth. It is crucial transitional period from childhood into adulthood. Crucial physical, emotional, mental, and attitudinal changes take place in this period. This is the age of stress and aggression.
Academic deadlines, tests, expectations of the parents and teachers, lack of counseling facilities, fast pace of the current life, materialism, TV, internet, etc. have added to the burden of stress on their delicate shoulders. Prolonged stress can cause serious physical, mental, emotional, and behavioral complications. Headache, insomnia, indigestion, poor concentration, frequent negative thoughts, anxiety, depression, relationship troubles, driving recklessly, drug or alcohol abuse, aggression are a few of them.
The teenagers must be educated and made aware about stress management through techniques such as positive attitude, deep breathing, self-help books, mediation, etc. Kindly publish my views in your esteemed daily to sensitize people about stress. Thanking you.
Yours truly,
Anant Toor

Subject: the problems and stresses faced by teenagers
Respected Sir/madam
I would like to bring the attention of the relevant authorities to your esteemed newspaper. I'd like to bring up the extreme stress that teenagers face. They must study diligently to achieve high marks in exams. They are stymied by peer pressure. During adolescence, a person undergoes significant physical and psychological changes. Meeting academic deadlines as well as the stringent requirements of parents is a difficult task.
I would like you to print my thoughts in full and inform people about how the teens are in trouble on all fronts.
Yours sincerely
worried teenager
