I have three teenagers and they are all very different from each other in terms of personality, interests, work habits, and phone use among other things. You could place all of them into three distinct challenging scenarios and a different one of them would excel while the others would flounder. But there isn't that kind of variety in most schools, or if there is students are expected to excel in all three scenarios. From the inside looking out, I think that home environment is the driving factor as I could easily tiger-mom them into deep depression and anxiety. Are they achieving everything of which they are capable? Probably not, but I do see consistent gains in maturity and personal responsibility each year and that really helps put perspective on some of the struggles. As a counter-study it would be interesting to track the adoption of PowerSchool software across the US and see if that correlates with teen anxiety.
