Yes it's completely normal, especially in teens. Teenagers experience a lot of pressure from family's often prompting them to do well and focus on school and studying, however remember that you are your own person and only you can make decisions for yourself, so have a think about the future, create some goals and take some pressure off.

Its normal if you are receiving pressure from your family. Because every decision made would make you think twice, cause you think whether it's yours to decide, or theirs based on the pressure they have given.

It is completely normal, how ever do not let is consume you. You are your own person and what ever you do in life and how you reach your successes is down to you and the path you chose to take. When you want something enough you will make it your goal no matter what and your family should support you through the good and the bad. Its always key to remember, pressure from family usually comes because of how much they care for you, so convert that into a positive!

It can be. If your family is putting pressure on you to do well, then you'll find yourself constantly assessing your future and asking yourself where you'll be if you don't meet your family's expectations.

Too much worrying or thinking about future will raise your anxiety level and one can't live in the present, so it's not normal. One might end up developing phobias by being scared of what holds in the future for him.

Of course, that's absolutely normal. But even if it's normal, it can be very stressful and a reason to seek help or try to talk with the family about the pressure put on you.

Yes. For me personally I do think that one of the very many things that cause us to think more about the future is the constant pressure your family gives you.

I believe that it normal for your family to pressure you and they might think they know what is best for you. I also beleive that you can listen to them but it up to you on how you should live your life.
