They think they are finding their freedom, but rebellion is a knee jerk reaction and is not really freedom They learn from this, however.

It's a normal behavior but a dangerous one as well. Teenagers are very keen to discover new things in life and they think that their parents are obstruction for them.
Most of teenagers get influenced or impressed by modern ideas of independent living. In this thought they start to completely disobey their parents.
But as they grow old they again start respecting their parents because they learn more about life.
Parents also have some part in this behavior. Some parents oppose every idea of children. They think that its impractical or risky. Children's confidence and talent is overlooked by majority of this parents. This is also a reason why many teenagers disobey their parents.

It is called disengagement, meaning they are moving away from their parents in order to find their identity. Part of forming your identity is developing own opinions therefore they are often in conflict with their parents views. Disobeying might not always be the intention but perhaps they are challenging their parents!

Great answers. I have heard it is a necessary part of their development and they'll come back to sanity after a while. Also, they think they can get away with it. Never let them! Stand strong and be the bigger person. They are still just kids and they need to constantly be reminded that they are NOT boss yet.

Because when your a child, your taught to obey orders and do what your parents say, and sometimes it doesn't feel good and not always the best thing for you, so you make your own decisions, its part of becoming independent, its necessary sometimes.

I honestly feel it's a trend. Society has labled them to be "terrible teens" so they live the part. It's up to us to keep after them to correct where society has failed.

Because parents have pointless rules that should be broken.

they are learning to be independent, because they want to explore and experience life on their on way, I guessed.
