Adolescence is a stressful time frame both for the children and for the parents and also for the health personnel to protect them from various physical, psychological and environmental influences that occur due to their pubertal and hormonal influences. Many of the earlier studies had quoted that adolescent is a period of ‘stress and storm’.
