The pre-adolescence phase (11-14 years) is a very delicate period of an individual's growth and is part of the transition between childhood and adolescence.
It is a middle age in which physical changes, due to the awakening of hormones in the body, begin to emerge and young people start to build their own identity, but - even more than in adolescence - they find themselves suspended, with both uncertain and decided looks, divided between the childhood identity and a future identity, attractive and fearsome at the same time.
Just like in nature, getting out of the cocoon is a difficult process, but the future butterfly is already beginning to be glimpsed.
