i want to know why sometimes that being teenager can be suck a**?

Question

i mean like you know,everything that is important to us mean nothing to the grown ups...almost everything

Answer 1

It doesnt suck at all..........i mean dont get me wrong there are TIMES when things really arent very cool,but those times will occurr throughout ALL of life and the specific situations just get worse. although its pretty cool to turn 16,18 then 21 because of the few things that change about life and how you may be treated ALL it means is that youre 1 yr closer to being completly responcible for yourself.......then other people(when you have a relationship and/or children EVERY single thought, decision,and action you make affects those people and you HAVE to remember to ask yourself before you do ANYTHING "could this possibly have a negative affect on any of those people").......as a teenager you have no comprehension of how hard your parents have it......do you think they always WANT to get up and go to work?NO,it sucks to know that if you want to keep your home and the stuff thats in it(tv, electric, heat, water,FOOD, clothing, and so on)you MUST get up and go to work EVERY day............what about when you want to go somewhere they dont always want to get up and take you because theyre damn tired from being at work and then they have to remember to make sure that everyone has what they need and that although theyre not hungary and just want to chill they have to cook dinner and then make sure to remember the errands and bills that need tended to and all of the household chores get done and many other never ending tasks causing them to NEVER get any PERSONAL time.............................................so, bassically its SUPER COOL to be a teenager and SUCKS to be an adult.......LIVE IT UP while you can get a GREAT education and MOST importantly PLEASE be good to parents.........

Answer 2

Okay hope you dont disregard all I say to you because I do mean well..A teen is known to be dramatic about almost everything and they have a passion for things grown ups have already experienced or dealt with so thats why its not as important to us...We know from our experiences what is possible and what is not...I am not so sure we always do or know whats right for our teens but we do have their best interest and safety in mind no matter what...One day you will know what I am saying is true and will "get it" when it comes to being adults and trying to deal with teens on a fair level..Just be patient with us as we are with you okay?..=)

Answer 3

You are in the middle of being an adult and a child. Parents are responsible for their children and usually longer than just the childhood. For example do you still live at home? If you answered yes then you are not a self sufficient adult yet. As an adult later in life you may find yourself in need of support of your parents, in other words it may kind of suck now but later you'll look back and realize that your pretty lucky. Also you will find later in life that it's better to make your own decisions with out the support or approval of the parents.

Answer 4

I'm often surprised by how much behavior of so-called adults who ought to know better make decisions that supposedly I'm supposed to be making, being a stupid teen and all that.... (I'm 17)

Every age can suck sometimes, but the teen years do seem to be horrible for many reasons.. we're going through dramatic hormonal changes and life changes, and being burdened with responsibilities, and transforming from children into (hopefully) responsible ands mature adults in the real world. But it doesn't always work out that way.

being a teenager doesn't have to be too horrible, and soon enough we'll grow out of it :)

Answer 5

Well grownups have a different perspective on life, aka job, family finance, children etc. So their priorities are different than a teenagers.
Teenagers have their priorites on other things, like friends and school (ok, parties). And they are discovering who they are and what they want to become in the future. And if you don't know who you are, then you are confused and everything sucks.

But I would assume that Grownups have gone through the same thing and had the same thoughts as you do.

Answer 6

because you don't even know what you want out of life at that tender age. I dont' mean YOU persay but I'm sure you know what I mean. You teenagers are humping around and don't even give a thought about your futures. Get over the "latest fad" and love yourself. Once you get into college you'll see how much different life really is. Not only that but you'll probablly kick yourself in the asss for some of the choices you made as a teen

Answer 7

WoW! I felt the same way when I was a teenager. My parents hated long hair, bellbottoms, me hanging out late. I think maybe because parents work hard, and work hard at raising children sometimes, so they like to see the fruits of their labor. There isn't really anything wrong with that. Its just that they don't have to compete as much anymore like teenagers do. Like with fashion, popularity, etc. Nor are they exposed to whats new and whats cool. I found that if I kept my grades up and didn't outwardly rebel they were pretty flexible. But parents do forget what it was like to be a teenager sometimes. Hang in there.

Answer 8

You'll figure that one out when you are not a teenager. It has to do with the true seriousness of problems and issues at hand, such as not being able to pay the rent or mortgage, forclosure, etc.
What real problems do most teens have that are such a big deal? Usually boyfriend/girlfriend problems.... that will go away when you get it through your head that there are millions of replacements for those sorry significant others.

Answer 9

Believe me it is a stage in life thing. Adults were teens once too, everything you are feeling, everything you think is important, they most likely did too. But as you age sweetie, your brain recomfigures to the stage you are in. Well, not all people LOL. But adults have to change, because your world changes, your responsibilities, your tastes, your finances, your ability to realize life is flying by. Keep open communcations and know that you just be the best you can be in whatever stage you are in.

Answer 10

I don't know if you're in high school--but I think that being in high school sucks everywhere. I hated high school. Wait until you get to college---it's awesome. I'm not even talking about the drinking and parties---you learn so much about the world you didn't know anything about before and you meet people from all over the world. You also have opportunities to go places around the country and around the world.
