Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C, or D to indicate the correct answer to each 
of the questions from 11 to 17.
 The age at which teenagers should become independent is a topic of debate and can vary depending 
on cultural norms and individual circumstances. While there is no set age that universally marks the 
transition to independence, it is generally recognized that the teenage years are a crucial period for 
developing autonomy and taking on increasing responsibility.
 During adolescence, teenagers undergo significant physical, emotional, and cognitive changes. 
They begin to form their own identities, explore their interests, and develop a sense of self. This period 
provides an opportunity for teenagers to gradually take on more independence and learn essential life 
skills that will prepare them for adulthood. However, it is important to note that independence should be 
a gradual process and not something expected to happen overnight. Teenagers still require guidance, 
support, and supervision from parents, caregivers, and trusted adults. The transition to independence 
should be based on individual maturity, readiness, and the ability to handle increasing responsibilities. 
Factors such as cultural expectations, family dynamics, and the level of trust and communication within 
the family also play a role in determining when teenagers should become more independent. Open and 
honest communication between parents and teenagers is crucial in navigating this transition, as it allows 
for discussions about expectations, boundaries, and the gradual relinquishing of parental control.
 It is important to recognize that the journey towards independence is not solely determined by age, 
but also by the readiness and capabilities of the teenager. Some teenagers may display greater maturity 
and responsibility at an earlier age, while others may require more time and support to develop these 
skills. Parental guidance and assessment of the teenager’s readiness are vital in determining when they 
should gradually assume more independence. It is essential to strike a balance between fostering 
independence and ensuring the teenager’s well-being and safety. By providing opportunities for growth, 
encouraging responsible decision-making, and maintaining a supportive environment, parents can help 
teenagers navigate the path to independence at a pace that suits their individual development.
