What are the benefits and downsides of adolescence?
I’m doing a report on the goods and the bads of adolescence. I need opinions, provide info, or examples, or share some memories!

Brave … and fearful; and
Romantic … and tough.

It is a best and worst kind of time. The highs are so high, and the lows are so low.
