Describe two external stressors that are unique to adolescents. Discuss what risk-taking behaviors may result from the external stressors and what support or coping mechanism can be introduced.

the assignment needs to be high college level, and with no higher of 15% plagiarism, also references need to be cited at the end of the work. The paper is expected to be 250 words with two or more references using in-text citations and source referencing in APA 6^th ed. formatting …

You must proofread your paper. But do not strictly rely on your computer’s spell-checker and grammar-checker; failure to do so indicates a lack of effort on your part and you can expect your grade to suffer accordingly. Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes.

Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages.

Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor.

The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument.

Discuss external stressors unique to adolescents

Introduction

Adolescence is a time of great change. It’s full of new responsibilities, challenges and opportunities. If you’re an adult, it may be easy to think of adolescence as something that happens to other people – but if you have children in this age group or are raising them now, then you know how much they’re dealing with changes in their life that can be challenging for anyone. In this post I will discuss external stressors unique to adolescents and how parents can help support their children through these times if needed:

Financial stress

Adolescents have to consider money management. They need to learn how to manage their own finances, but also how to be responsible for the financial futures of others. Money can be a source of stress for adolescents because it’s often viewed as something that belongs solely in the hands of adults (parents or guardians). As such, it may make them feel uncomfortable or unable to express any real emotion about their feelings regarding this topic.

If you’re an adolescent who struggles with money matters and feels like they’re being judged by other people because they don’t have enough income yet or if your parents aren’t financially supporting you as much as they should be it’s important that you talk openly with someone who will listen without judgement or criticism. It might help if this person is simply another adult who has been through similar experiences so that he/she understands where yours come from better than anyone else could!

Relationship stress

It’s important to understand that not all relationships are healthy. Some teens struggle with unhealthy relationships, and it’s important to know how to help them. Examples of unhealthy relationships include:

• Bullying other students at school

• Not spending enough time with friends or family members

• Not getting enough sleep and nutrition

If you think your teen might be experiencing one or more of these issues, talk with him or her about how you can help. You can also use this article as a tool when talking with them about how their home life affects their mental health and vice versa.

School/work stress

School and work stress are two of the most common types of external stressors that adolescents face. While schoolwork can be stressful, it’s not always as bad as other external factors. Some schools have programs in place to help students manage their time and stay on top of assignments. In addition, there are plenty of resources available online for those who need more assistance than what’s offered in school or at home.

The job market is also a source of great anxiety for many young adults today especially those who aren’t studying at an institution with a particularly strong reputation (like Harvard). This is because there’s no guarantee that you’ll be able to find work after graduation; therefore, it’s important to make sure your resume reflects as much relevant experience as possible while also demonstrating an interest in becoming part of an industry rather than just working somewhere else temporarily until something better comes along later down the road!

Psychosocial stressors

• Peer pressure

• Media and social media

• Family dynamics

• Academic performance

Home life stressors

• Divorce. Adolescents are more likely to be the victims of divorce than adults, with 1 in 3 teens having seen a family member go through a divorce by age 18.

• Death of a family member. A recent study found that one in six high school students had lost someone close a parent, sibling or grandparent to suicide by age 18; this rate was higher among African-American students.

• Family problems: Parental conflict/relationship problems (e.g., infidelity); financial issues; job loss or unemployment

Adolescents face stresses and impacts from life that adults may not always notice.

Adolescents face stresses and impacts from life that adults may not always notice. For example, adolescents may be more susceptible to peer pressure or are more likely to experience anxiety than adults. The following are some of the most common external stressors unique to adolescents:

• Peer pressure and social media

• Sexual activity at an early age (15 years old)

• Clinical depression in young people

Substance abuse in teens Health issues, such as diabetes and asthma

Conclusion

Adolescents are a unique group of people who have to deal with a number of stresses and impacts on their lives. They can be emotionally affected by these external factors, which may not be immediately evident in their behavior. While this article has covered some of the most common external stresses that adolescents face, it is important to remember that there are many others that they could be experiencing without even knowing it!
