I must clarify that one of the biggest problems I have in this age is the time I go out alone without my family. When I was younger my family used to let me go out more, this is because now that I've become a teen the dangers and harms have increased. My parents have now become hard -persuading because of all the things they hear from other people and the society, thus this affects a negative effect because they start following their advices. They let me go out, but if tardiness occurs they start freaking out and yelling and screaming. After we've moved from Lebanon to Syria, things were starting to look bright then however many things changed and the problems started to get clear.
