Word origin

The term 'teens' originated from the shortening of the word 'teenager,' which was first recorded in the early 1900s. It became widely used to refer to individuals in the age group of 13 to 19 due to the distinct challenges and characteristics associated with this stage of development. The concept of adolescence as a unique phase of life gained prominence in the 20th century, leading to the recognition of 'teens' as a specific age group.
