Of all the unusual behaviors I was told to expect from my teenagers, their staying in their rooms for a long period of time was the worst for me.
Like many other parents, I, too , often thought that there must either be something wrong with me , or something deeply wrong with my teenagers when they suddenly wanted to avoid everyone in the house and the outside world.What I didn't know was that looking for solitude (独处) and privacy was perfectly normal for teenagers, and while you may think their wish for solitude is worrying, what is really happening is actually mentally(精神上)necessary.
A recent study in the Journal of Adolescence looked at a lot of possible causes of a teenager's strong wish and need for solitude. What they found can make parents less worried about the troubling but actually helpful behavior. Researchers believe wanting and needing to be alone is just a matter of personal choice for teenagers , and that if that choice is out of their will, there is nothing to worry about.
“Solitude has always been seen as something detrimental to mental health , especially for teenagers who are thought to be unsociable or lonely.”says Margarita Azmitia, professor of psychology at UC Santa Cruz and co-author of the study. She continues, “However, sometimes solitude can help teenagers deal with mental problems. Developmentally, learning to be alone is a skill, and it can make them refreshed and energetic(精力充沛的).”
So when should parents get worried Researchers have found if a teenager is forced to stay in his bedroom as a punishment or something, then this kind of solitude will cause problems. But when a teenager has chosen on his own to check out his life, so to speak, it serves as a much-needed break from the noise of life. In those cases , self-chosen solitude can provide a chance for self-examination or creative expression, So communication matters between teenagers and parents.
