The beginning of a romantic relationship. Finding someone we like is easy. But finding the courage to ask this person out is much less so! How will the person react? How to find the right words?

How to act at school with a new boyfriend, girlfriend or partner? Having a lover sometimes upsets the routine and social relations at school.

Social media. Young people quickly become addicted to social media and all the technologies that allow them to communicate.

Anxiety related to the first days of class. Back to school: source of joy or source of tears?

How do we approach an adult and clearly explain our point of view? The principal: the supreme authority of the school! Some students have a subscription to his office, but others are very rarely there. How to talk to him?

Independence. The first times without our parents. The beginning of adolescence is also the beginning of independence. We prefer outings with our friends, leaving our parents at home (finally!). How to manage on your own?

Being tactful. Helping a friend sometimes means telling them a hard-to-hear truth. But how to go about it with tact? How to console and encourage your friend? And what brand of chocolate to buy as an apologize when you realize you've been TOO honest?

At some point, in their school career, students may no longer feel like continuying their French as a Second Language classes. Several reasons are mentionned.

Having a passion. Young people broaden their horizons and develop their own interests. Favorite artist, humanitarian cause, cult film or TV series... so many ways to differentiate themselves or identify with a group.

Discipline. The rules at home. To be punished: what an insult! Are punishments sometimes justified? Are parents exaggerating? Where to draw the limits?

Summer is synonymous with freedom, adventure and possibilities. For some, this season will be very organized while for others, they will spend the summer alone at home, perhaps for the first time.

Studies and tests. An exam is coming up. Few young people jump for joy at the idea of spending an evening studying. "Memorizing the capitals of Asian countries! Yay!" The temptations to cut corners are numerous.

The importance of privacy. Among friends, young people confide. What happens when we decide to reveal a secret entrusted to us? What will be the consequences for our friend? And for our friendship?

Fun, health, performance and pressure are all part of the relationship young people have with sport.

Young victims of ageism. Lazy, angry, irresponsible, superficial, immature: there are several prejudices about teenagers. The result: many people don't take young people seriously.
