As children grow into teenagers they begin a search for self identity. They seek
acceptance from their peers while simultaneously seeking individualism from their
family. For many teenagers this means learning lessons the same way that they
have since birth, through pop culture and the media. Teens suffer from unwilling
physical changes, new desires that they do not understand and problems they have
never faced all with a sense of immortality. They are filled with confusion, ambiguity,
and fear of the future. Many times teenagers identify with the characters in the
books and play out that character to see if it fits them. They can then begin
to develop a sense of identity and even resolve everyday problems of acceptance,
abuse, purpose in life, need for stability, and peer pressure. Vampires are good
role models because they are still confident, immortal, strong, intelligent, and
most often achieve every desire. When teenagers can relate to the characters that
are set in everyday situations it begins to blur the line between reality and
fiction and they may associate with the social problems that the characters are
going through.
