This later strive for independence is far more dangerous then the earlier classes of rebellion in adolescence. The adolescence of this age group are the most prone to take dangerous risks that could harm themselves and or others.
More times that not this late stage of rebellion is committed by families with only one child. It is often extremely difficult do to tight family ties, and a tremendous amount of holding on by both sides. But sadly in high school with graduation into a new tear of Independence in the coming year leads to this stage of rebellion. Instead of attempting to create or define themselves this stage of rebellion is simply to severe ties that he/she consider detrimental to their future independence.
This time is also considered the most difficult for parents since they are losing the bonds with their son/ daughter that they have cherished built on for so many previous years. However experts continue to say " DON'T TAKE IT PERSONALLY," its still the adolescent trying to cope and come into their own for the future. It is recommended that like previous forms of rebellion the parents stay morally supportive and give the child advice and guidance on possible risk taking. Myself being a teenager of this age group however would say, when your giving your children advice make it subtle, because nothing annoys me more than my parents nagging me to stay out of trouble. In other words make it so your child knows you care and knows your their for them but your not baring down on them.
