I was so bad as a teenager that I almost didn't have children of my own. The worst part is that I realise that so much of what I thought was just weird attitude on my part that had no basis in reality. On the bright side, I think that my experiences I had as a child make me a better mother. Really, some good has to come out of all of this.

I was the sort of teenager thats every parents worst nightmare. I was really horrible, never listened and never did what I was told, ever! I even refused to go to school for about three months, which almost ended in my parents going to jail. Looking back now I realise what a cow I was and I have apologised endlessly to my parents, but at the time I didnt think I was doing anything wrong. If I had a kid like me I think Id end up killing it!

oh gosh, I cringe when I think what a nightmare I was. I can remember throwing teenage strops and flouncing off in a tantrum. I can recall screaming "I didn't ask to be born!!" at my mum, particularly when I was losing an argument and was desperately trying to think of a winning strategy. My parents must have had prematurely grey hair because of me.
It only last through my teenage years - in my thirties and forties I got the opportunity to care for them at the end of their life, so I hope that they knew how much I loved them.

I do now. I think it takes growing up and getting out on your own before you actually realize how hard life is and how much our parents had to deal with. I was pretty wild when I was a teenager and have apologized to my parents for putting them through so much. I think you're right...it's part of growing up.

oh, yeah, totally. i was a huge pain in my parents' necks. however, it does go both ways. my parents were not very good at the communication thing, so my being a pain in the neck was helped by my parents' not being able to handle it or find a way to stop it. if my parents had better communication skills they would have been able to at least talk to me in a civilized way. heck, i didn't talk to my dad for a good 2 years when i was a teen. he was a miserable man, and i was a miserable kid.
all that being said, all is forgotten now. my parents and i have a great relationship.

I currently am... =)
But it's all part of growing up. As a teenager you question everything as you become more aware of things. Of course your parents only want the best for you.

Oh jeez, don't get me started about what a jerk I was growing up. The only comfort I have is that my Grandmother told me my mom wasn't so perfect when she was a kid. My mom and I both cried our way through my high school years. Now she's my best friend. Guess I wasn't that bad!
