7. Introduction Most adults think, that teenagers are crazy, irresponsible and their behavior is exaggerated. Perhaps because teenagers act like they act. And maybe because you act like you act. Teenagers often don’t even know why they are sad, why they cry or why they explode with laughter. Teenagers want to try new things (mostly prohibited things – because how we all know- forbidden fruit tastes best). Teenagers want to risk, they feel like rebels, they feel freely, they want to feel grown up. To what extent are they able to take the risk? Why they take risk? Do they break the rules? Do they test what happens then? We will try to answer these and many other questions. Writen project: example
