THE YOUTH AGE

This particular age has been defined to be active stage of a man. It is the age between childhood and maturity. It covers from teenage to early adulthood. It is the age of puberty, adolescence, and early adulthood. This age covers from 13 years old to 40 years old, and it is estimated that this age takes 40% of the entire world population. It is also the age of maturing physically whereby there is a structural change in the human body, there is strength, there is zeal, there is activeness and motivation. A young man or woman also grows mentally and socially in this age. One is easily motivated in this age and may be directed to the right way or misled.

  • What is peculiar about this age?
