Can anyone give me help with puberty?

Can anyone give me help with puberty?
Seven words:
Get your hand out of your pants.
There.
It happens. Don't be scared of it! EMBRACE IT! Hahaha! No, but really. Be more specific. What do you need to know?
Puberty is basically the changes that are made when a child's body turns into an adults, that is capable of reproduction. Growth accelerates in the first half of puberty and reaches completion by the end. Body differences between boys and girls are restricted to their genes. It is obvious for a girl to know when she reaches puberty, but not that obvious when you are male. During puberty, major differences in size, shape, composition and function develop in many body structures and systems. The most obvious of these are referred to as secondary sex characteristics. In a strict sense, the term puberty (and this article) refers to the bodily changes of sexual maturation rather than the psychosocial and cultural aspects of adolescent development.
Adolescence is the period of psychological and social transition between childhood and adulthood. Adolescence largely overlaps the period of puberty but its boundaries are less precisely defined and it refers as much to the psychosocial and cultural characteristics of development during the teen years as to the physical changes of puberty. Children and young adolescents near the average age of puberty are sometimes referred to as prepubescent in medical literature.
To answer your question, I used http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/puberty... but you should be able to get a more understandable answer from http://www.teenpuberty.com/index.php?sec...
