Housing
Housing is an important issue for all young people, whether you choose to live at home or in a place of your own. If you are living at home, it is natural that there will be some stresses and strains. Try to understand that is may be hard for your parents and carers to accept that you are growing up and to treat you like the adult you are becoming. Explain how you feel to them and listen to what they have to say. This may help stop any problems before they start.
