Teenagers grow quickly and they need to adjust to a variety of changes in self, family expectations, school/ colleges, social circles and environment. At the same time, they also need to prepare for their careers and the path they want to walk on. This requires them to become responsible for themselves.
They have a variety of things to deal with and it gives rise to a lot of questions they keep seeking answers and find themselves getting into an ambiguous state with lots of answers and options thrown to them and sometimes that become overwhelming to handle.
Should one focus on short term goal or long term goal?
How to take decision when you are confused?
How to deal with criticism/ How to handle criticism in a positive manner? How to be confident?
Should teens spend time learning soft skills/behavioural capabilities?
All these are issues that affect Teens and by a structured, gamified platform helping them see clarity, #YanchaTeens paves the way for constructive thinking in the young minds.

Good relations between parents and adolescents lessen the likelihood that teens will exhibit extreme erratic behaviours.
Such behaviors have been well-studied and are regularly found associated with the quality of the parent youth relationship.
A study of more than 12,000 teenagers found a link between positive parent-child relationships and fewer violent behaviors.
Similarly, another study found that teens with positive relations with their Parents are less likely to be delinquent (failing in ones duties or commit crimes). This association is mediated by greater parental awareness about the adolescent, more supportiveness, and stronger family routines.
Several studies have found that positive relationships or connectedness between parents and adolescents are to avoidance or lower linked use of alcohol, tobacco, and drugs.

Careers are drastically shifting. The four big reasons are:
Industry 4.0 – a new era of doing things differently is going to dominate the world in which your teenager grows into a young adult.
World of Opportunities – several new opportunities are coming up while the traditional ones are going into the background. Is you child surfing the wave or stuck with traditional frameworks?
Single Qualification – the thought of a single qualification sufficing through a lifetime is no longer valid. This is replaced with Learnability as a driving force.
Education – is totally democratised and available to all. There is no knowledge that few privileged are only privy to. Moving with the times is the most crucial aspect to thrive.
Parents therefore need to come out of the good school – good college – good job mindset and start preparing their children for the new world in which they will have to thrive. Careers choice cannot be based on Subject of Interest or the wishes of individuals. It needs to be based on Capability and Interest of the individual and then Aligned to the opportunities available.
Any parent cannot be aware of the plethora of choices available. They need to gather deeper understanding and information.
The Yancha Approach to Career Choice provides you with six resources:
This unique simulation enables learners identify and assess self in a fun filled, iterative manner. The simulation walks the individual over these seven themes and then helps identify if they could make the right choices and reach full potential.

Yancha is a Japanese word which means a naughty, mischievous and unmanageable child. These are also the behaviours that are seemingly difficult to manage, and which if channelized well can bring up a very responsible youngster. We believe that a child is like a play doh or a seed - and it's the responsibility of the parents to provide the environment to bring up the child, and that in turn shapes the child over years.

Reacting too strongly (or not strongly enough) to disobedience (misbehavior) can lead to repeated issues which can last indefinitely. Consider the following information to correct your child's behavior and remain a positive influence at the same time. Read more...
