It is considered that lots of
people
are happier in their teenage years while others think happiness comes in
adulthood
regardless of its challenges. I will discuss both views and
also
give my opinion in
this
essay. On one hand, most
people
consider the teenage years as the happiest period of
life
because
life
is easier and they have little or nothing to worry about.
That is
, teenagers have all their needs met by parents/guardians without any need to really work for pay. All they could worry about is going to school and for that,
life
gets easier and happier for them.
For example
, a survey made by an undergraduate who handed questionnaires

As a result

teenagers.
On the other hand
, I think despite the bulk of challenges that comes with

, it brings more happiness in
life
. The reason is

are no longer anxious about the future as they already met their goals.
That is
to say, what individuals get worried about while they were younger would have been achieved in
adulthood
so there isn’t much pressure anymore and so they relax and enjoy with their families. Taking myself
