QUESTIONS
1. Do you agree with the poet’s point of view about life as a teenager?
What do you agree or disagree with?
Ans - I do agree with the poet's point of view on the life of a
teenager. Yes, many do say that those years are the best years of
your life, moreover even the younger ones believe it too. On the
contrary, it is actually one of the most difficult years of our lives. It
is when we realize that life actually so complicated, so short and
so lonely. I do agree with the struggles we need to face that the
poet states, like fitting in with a crowd or finding young love and
having heartbreaks. It is a phase of mixed emotions. Indeed,
being a teen is quite hard and the poem expresses it all.
2. What kind of struggles do teenagers have to contend with today?
Ans –
I observe many teen struggling to find their position in
society, wanting to be known by their peers and accepted for
who they are. This is one of the most important
responsibilities in their lives at this point, and they are filled
with anxiety and insecurity as they go through it.
School related stress increases as students become older
since there are more homework, tests, and social drama to
deal with, not to mention sports and other extra activities.
Clubbing, and socializing with friends open up a new and
fascinating social world. In the meantime, they are constantly
distracted by technology. Teenagers face a great deal of
stress as they learn to balance all of these expectations.
Parents usually want their children to achieve everything
they desire yet lack the resources to do so. Teenagers face a

lot of pressure to do well in school, make excellent friends,
succeed in activities beyond school, and be responsible for
themselves and possibly their younger siblings.
3. Write a poem in which you reflect on some of the struggles you
encounter as a teenager.
Ans - I can construct a poem as an AI language model based on a given activity. Here's
a poem about some of the struggles of teenage years:
“Being a teenager”
Being a teen can be tough,with decisions and pressures enough.trying to fit in and be
true,can make us feel like we are in a zoo.
we sit in corner thinking about life But,
we're only a teen, what’s there so much to decide?
The thought of it feels so depressing,
Our heartbeats are rising,
We wish there was someone by our side.
Being a teenager is not a breeze,but we are grateful for the chance to take.
The opportunity to be ourselves,
And embrace life's twists and swells.
