The older children get, the more privacy they need. This is because children are facing major changes both emotionally and mentally. In addition, children's physical, thinking and social skills also have many changes. To be able to grow, children need to learn to deal with these difficulties with independence and responsibility.Your child's desire to have more space is not necessarily because he has something to hide from you. Secrecy often accompanies the development of independence. It is a completely natural thing when children enter adolescence. However, if the child is always acting mystical, then there may be something out of the ordinary. If your child is always in the room, doesn't want to talk to anyone, or becomes apathetic to everyone even though you've tried everything to talk to him, it could be a sign that he's depressed or anxious. or your child is using drugs, alcohol, drugs or other problems or it could be because he or she is spending too much time online or playing video games.
