All parents know that adolescence is inevitable. Sooner or later they will have to experience these "delights" again, but in a different role.

Everyone is used to the fact that changes should happen by the age of 13-14, and until then, supposedly, there is no need to worry. Not so.

Experts have revealed the first signs of approaching adolescence that should attract parents' attention.

Friends

Friends are always and everywhere, but in adolescence they acquire new qualities. Friends and their opinions become fundamental.

During this same period, teenage groups are formed, they have opponents and enemies, children really want to be part of the group, and refusal is taken very seriously.

Distance

This is the next thing that appears in communication with relatives and parents.

Don't even ask unnecessary questions, or at least don't expect to get an answer to them.

Don't panic. Experts say that all behavior patterns are just a developmental stage.

Along with this, shyness or self-doubt may appear.

Contradictions

The interests of a future or current teenager also change, and dramatically.

But it's not all that bad. Yesterday's incompetent can pull himself together and turn into a strong-willed athlete, musician, and so on.

But be prepared that this too shall pass.
