Maybe... I was not in a common way, but I was a rebell inside - you know, the world is bad, people do not understand each other, I do not talk to them.. I had no opportunity to have rows with my parents according to that problem, cause they are very strict... so... I would agree partially. Sometimes you can run it quite smoothly;)

No, if your parents are intelligent enough and don't treat you as a baby when you're a teen, you don't have to rebel. (only in school, maybe).
But most teens don't rebel at all, the things they like to be thought of as rebelling (like smoking, drinking etc.) are mostly done because of peer pressure. So in fact they don't rebel, just follow their friends' opinion instead of their parents'.

As teenagers mature, they need to become gradually more independent as they ready themselves for adulthood. But HAVE TO REBEL?? No. The sad truth is that many who choose to rebel never live long enough to become responsible adults.

I think there is a point in life when you need to stand up for your beliefs even if they run contrary to your parents. There needs to be a break made from being a child under your parents, to being an independent adult, and usually this causes strife with the parents, resulting in the rebel label.

oh thats for sure
they rebel in many ways
some small ways and others in big ways
it depends how sheltered they are
it's all a process of establishing independence
it can be from something as simple as wanting more
allowance etc...to staying out all night
but it all falls in the same category
some rebellion is healthy
some is not

I don't agree personally. I was a rebellious teen and gave my parents so much grief. It depends on how far they go.
My cousin was always like that and he is 31 and still needs alot of growing up, he is in jail. His rebellious streaks lent him into drugs, that is what landed him in jail.
I guess it depends on each kid, some kids are just looking for reasons to do wrong, like I did and others well feel that they must stand up for what they believe is right and sometimes they are. It helps some to trust what they believe is right and be a leader others are just trouble and it doesn't help them rather leads them to more childish behaviour.

It's true, but some teenagers are lucky enough to establish their independence without huge conflict, so may not be perceived as rebelling.

Teenage rebellion is a necessary step in the maturation process. Growing up means thinking for yourself and cutting the apron strings.

two and a half thousand years ago some fellow in ancient Greece was moaning about the younger generation in words that would be understood today
it seems that since the beginning of history teenagers have been disrespectful lazy pains in the bum
But they do grow out of it!!!!
