Introduction

Different physiological, cognitive, psychological and biological developments are supposed to occur in a child from the age of 11 to 14.

These abnormalities may include reaching the stage of the puberty very early or late or not at all attaining puberty. This may also include lack of ability to think critically and developing own beliefs and thoughts (Mitchell, 2007).
