I'm 15 so I'll tell you realistic things instead of what expected. You should learn from teachers, but if they don't deserve your respect (By being unfair in judgments, or their behavior is bad) then don't show how much you don't like her/him. Just don't speak to them more than you have to. With friends, you be a good friend. Don't back stab or tell a big time lie. A small lie is ok if their about to cry. Don't steal lovers. If they have a problem, offer a sympathetic ear or leave them alone. If they are in a drug related problem or in a abusive relationship, then its your duty to help them. Respect your parents if they respect you. Automatic respect doesn't always work. Have fun once in a while because being mature all the time will kill you. (Trust me, I know) But you must have maturity to get through life and school, just don't be all the time. A few silly times will get ri of stress. You can have sex if you want, but these are the things to make sure of; have a condom, a person you trust and love and won't hurt or abuse you. Make sure you won't regret it. You should not manipulate or be "easy"... Being "easy" will hurt you a LOT and if the guy doesn't like it, tough luck, they don't deserve it.

At 15 you don't have a lot to be worried about just yet. You should concentrate on being a kid while you still are one. There will be time enough to grow up when your a little older. I think it's very mature to want to know how a 15 year old should act and behave. Remember what i said about staying a kid. It doesn't last long so enjoy it while you can.

I'm 21. I'd like to point out that people often get confused especially as a teenager and wonder if they're too immature or too grown up among other things. Just be yourself. Maybe if sometimes you say things that you afterwards consider silly or people say that they're silly, then just take a few seconds to think before you say something. I think society is making teenagers grow up faster and faster. But everyone ages differently and you're not the only one feeling like you don't know how to act!

aww sweetie!
well, do this for me, glance back over the two years of your life. doesnt seem long ago does it? well im 18. left school when i was sposed to at 16, went to college for one and a half years (i know, should have been two years) and ill be 19 very soon. it doesnt seem so long ago but im a different person.
when i was 15 i thougth "oh god, that am i doing? i have to be grown up like those girls over there, and have a slight attitude like them and sproud my knowledge all over the place. i have no idea what im doing, what if i get something rworng and someone sees"
nooow, im thinking, "i wish i didnt try so hard, i wish i had realised that i should have been a young teenager and everything should have been more light hearted. i should enjoyed myself rather than worrying what the outcome of my every action and word would be"
enjoy the things you did at as a kid, work hard in class and keep things together at home. go bowling, play catch and watch movies at home with friends. or at friends homes. out of everything i did with friends, those are the things i remember and enjoy(ed) the most. no down sides.

It's hard to respond to this without knowing what your inclinations are.
1. Keep yourself safe. Don't let others take advantage of you, keep yourself out of unsafe circumstances, and when someone is pressuring you to do something you don't think is right, fight back. Learn how to fight back.
2. Don't be in too much of a hurry for adult experiences, like sex, drinking, etc. You'll have plenty of time for that when you've gained the confidence to handle them in a way that is best for yourself.
3. Don't try to be the most popular girl. At the higher levels of popularity in many schools, it's not about being really liked, but about cutthroat political competition. Cultivate a few very close friends and a broader circle of friends, and be friendly to everyone who's not threatening. (And be judicious in labeling someone "threatening".)
4. Try to cultivate an interest in your school work. Try to find it interesting. It will be a lot easier that way. If it makes your head hurt, think of the hurt the way you'd think of "the burn" of exercising-- you're forging new neural pathways, and it's supposed to hurt a little. But if you cultivate an interest in your work, it will hurt less.
5. You're at the age when you can begin to learn how to control obsessiveness. You may know how depression or anxiety seems to multiply on itself, because of the secondary depression-about-being-depressed or the anxiety-about-being-anxious. Lots of human feelings are like this, and while there's often little you can do about the initial feelings, you can learn to nip the secondary ones in the bud. It takes practice, but if you just keep in mind when feelings begin to control that they don't have to go any further, this in itself is a help.

Well why be so paranoid? I think the older generation are setting to higher standards for young people to follow or learn by. Believe me I have met plenty of adults who haven't learnt from their experiences whatsoever or set any good example at all. And even if they have set a good example, they brag just a little bit more than what is actual reality.
Everyone makes mistakes honey, and my best advice for you is this;
Stand up for yourself, and what you believe is right
Believe in yourself, no one is aloud to put you down purely because you are young... That means that they themselves obviously haven't learnt anything in life if they are still bitching at youths.
Act like yourself and your age (no pun), and nothing else
Remember you are not immature you are just learning and you are aloud to be silly sometimes and have fun - I haven't grown up yet, I'm still a kid at heart!
Don't get into things that you feel uncomfortable in, or feel pressured to do (a.k.a recreational drugs, dangerous situations etc.)
Equal out the time you are studying and socialising. (I hate school) school is boring but necessary. Especially if you have no job in the future
Just be 15!!!

A 15-year-old girl should understand her boundaries and show respect where it is due. She should carry herself with grace and always be polite. Her attire should be respectable and never revealing. She should be proud of her parents and not questioning decisions that are in her best interest. She should be studious but still have time for athletics. She needs to be a young lady.
Our children should not carry themselves like the 21-year-old college students as depicted on MTV and BET. If you want to be taken seriously, you need to appear serious.

You know how to behave & stay a good girl for your parents.
Keep your respect.
Don't let boys touch you & dont get a bad name.
There is nothing wrong with going out with boys but dont let them ruin you.
Most desent boys wants to know that the girl they will marry will be a virgin & you stay that way until you meet the right person.
If a boy you meet, stays with you for a long time & don't get his way then he most probably will be the right one for you.
Always be honest in a relationship & expect 100% honesty in return.
If you ever have any problems deal with them openly, honestly & immediately dont let them fester.
You will grow up to be a lady & you will feel good.

i've never known one (myself included, 10 yrs ago) not act like an annoying juvenile brat. they will be attempting to drink as much alcohol as possible, bunk off school, snog as many boys as possble, b!tch about their mates all the time, and be sullen and lazy
the most you can hope for is that they'll try hard at their gcses and not get into TOO much trouble
EDIT - sorry I didn't realise it was for you. in that case, just be yourself. 15 is a difficult age - you're not quite a child and not quite an adult. Don't try and act mature, just do whatever you feel is right for you. Do things that make you happy, not to impress your mates and certainly not to impress men! Make sure your schoolwork is your priority because it will set you up for the rest of your life.

Respect herself, and enjoy the last of her teenage years without pressure from society.
Start thinking about a career.
School/college work is important - but in moderation.
Her parents should be her friends, not her overbearers.
Yes, I was 15 once. And I hated every minute of it!
