Recommendation

In my investigation on who influence teens the most? I would recommend a new question to who ever. The question is what makes a teen so curious about things in life?

Reflection

In the investigation I did, what went well was finding research and use to find the answer to my question. In the investigation teens are influenced by their friends the most, then their parents, next followed up by their siblings, and last teachers. The part that was the hardest was thinking of the question. Doing this investigation made me learn a lot about the teenage life even more.

Conclusion

In the information I've learned is that teenagers are more influenced by their friends than anybody else. In the survey students choose friends as the most influenced person in their lives. Although that ninety-six students did the survey only 47% of students choose friends as their answer.

Survey Data

The data shows that teenagers are influenced the most by their friends over their parents, siblings, and especially their teachers. The percent in friends is 47%, the parent percentage was 31%, siblings had 18%, and teachers had 4%.

My teen investigating info source

The article "Who influence teens the most" compares the relationship between teens and friends, and teens and their parents. Studies said that teens who have a bad relationship with their parents are more influenced by their friends. Also some said that parents of preadolescents are concerned that their child will break apart from them and would go out and do something crazy. Some people think that the teen acts bad because he or she just wants to or that they are with the wrong crowd, but actually it's because the parent is not giving support to their kids. On the other hand good friends can make up for families that don't have a great relationship.

Investigation Question

What makes teenagers disobey and be curious about the world (particularly drugs and their bodies)?

Topic and Goals

My topic is about why teens don't listen to their parents? What I think I know about the topic is that parents don't trust their kids because they might go out and have sex and have kids of their own. What I want to know is the reason of the teen ignoring the parent?
