When I was 13 years old, I started to notice big changes in my body. I grew taller quickly, and my voice began to crack sometimes. I felt embarrassed when this happened in class. I didn’t want to talk to anyone about it, not even my parents. I thought I was the only one going through this.
One day, my mom noticed that I was quiet and asked me what was wrong. I told her about my worries. She smiled and said, “This is just part of growing up. I went through the same thing when I was your age.” She also told me that all my classmates were probably having similar changes. Then she took me to a library and we read some books about adolescence. I learned that these changes were normal.
After that, I started to talk to my friends. To my surprise, many of them had the same feelings as me. Now I don’t feel embarrassed anymore. I know that growing up is a natural process and everyone goes through it.
