Some people think that the teenage years are the happiest time of most people’s lives. Others think that adult life brings more happiness, in spite of greater responsibility. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

People are divided in their opinion regarding whether teenage years are the happiest time for most individuals or adulthoods. According to some folks,

teenagers

are happier than

adults

, while others have a totally opposing view.

This

essay will explore both views and I will explain why I believe

adults

'

life

brings more happiness than teenagehood'. On the one hand,

teenagers

have no direct responsibilities for

life

and are still under the custody of their parents or caregivers.

In other words

, they do not have to make

money

or provide support for others. Needless to say that, responsibility cause stress and can cause

adults

not to be able to experience happiness as much.

Besides

, a teen can enjoy their

life

by spending time with friends, watching TV, playing video games and having food, shelter and support of their caretakers. In fact, they have all they need to be happy.

On the other hand

, youth age is a big transition between childhood and adulthood and

lots

of hormonal changes happen in their bodies. These changes can bring

lots

of emotions like depression, anxiety that can negatively impact the sense of joy. On top of that, they are not mature enough to know how to properly deal with those emotions which can lead to unhappiness.

Furthermore

, they still have

lots

of unknown about their futures in terms of career and education. All of that can make them not be able to enjoy

freedom

and happiness. In my perspective,

adults

have happier lives than

teenagers

.

Adults

have already their future mostly planned and are working, no one can tell them what to do. They have

freedom

of using their

money

to enjoy

life

. while

teenagers

are still dependent on their parents' approval for everything and can not spend

money

on whatever they decide.

Thus

,

teenagers

still cannot have the

freedom

of spending

money

and enjoy

life

as much as

adults

. To sum up, while some might argue with me and find teenagehood most joyful period of time because they have less responsibility and more

freedom

to enjoy their lives. In my view, youth are under

lots

of pressure due to the hormonal changes and

also

not having the future planned yet.
