I'm sure there are many many theory's on this subject and so many different reasons for different teens seem more or less emotionally unstable than others. A lot of teens are having a very hard time coming to terms with the changes their body's are going through.
For many teens their home lives are rocky at best. The harder things get at home the more apt they are to lash out against society because they are not at all sure how else to deal with the emotions they are being forced to deal with.
If all that isn't enough a good percentage of teens are changing from grade school to middle school. The thought of dealing with a new surrounding loosing some friends and having to make new ones is enough to send even the most sane kids over the edge.
That having been said maybe we should all spend a little more time wondering why our teens are so moody and a little more time trying to figure out what little things we may do that might make the pressers our teens face every single day just a little easier to deal with
i know that's not easy as parents we spend a better portion of our time chasing the all mighty dollar so that we can buy the things we think our teens want and need when in reality what they want most is a little unconditional love, understanding and reassurance that every thing is going to be OK.

Rash generaliztions for the loss...
Anyhow, some teenagers are like that, while a good majority are not.
Its an age where emotions play a bigger role, since you suddenly are thrown into a society (highschool) with a complex set of rules of how to act. Alot of kids take the blunt part it at school, then unleash in their private life.
Don't apply this to all teenagers though, my group and friends and I are extremely solid when it comes to emotions.
I could say all old men can't achieve an erection, but that wouldn't be true.
Or nice :)

Try to remember back 'when'. Hormones are raging, bodies are changing (sometimes overnight), peer pressure is pretty strong. Just a few reasons why the instability. And then, as the girls mature past 40 or so, there's the thing called menopause that starts it all over again!! Whoo hooo!

Their hormones are trying to stabilise. It's mental and physical changes. Not a kid, not yet an adult. It's very confusing. In certain areas, adults will say 'you are no longer a kid, so grow up!' and in certain areas, they will say 'you are too young to do that'. With all that comes in peer pressure and their need to fit in. I'm glad my time is over.

Because they know there are uncertainties in their lives ahead..they are still in the process of "too much trial and error".
