Well, I guess since I'm technically still a teenager, this applies to me in some ways.

I'm not sure how old you are, but I can try to help ya out.

When I was about 15-16, I felt the same way. Adults were the enemy, they didn't understand, and they didn't care.

It took me awhile but, I realized that my mother was once a teenager too, lol. I know, it's hard, but sometimes parents (or teachers, etc.) do things that we wouldn't agree with in our best interest. As much as we'd like to think that it's unfair, and wrong, in the long run, a lot of us are glad that our elders kept us from doing some of the things we really wanted to do.

Now, I'm not saying that you are in any way immature and unable to make any decisions of your own. By no means! I just remember disobeying or ignoring my mother's advice and getting myself into the kind of trouble that I wished I would'nt have. Boys, alcohol, drugs or whatever you or we decided to do when we're young..they end up not being as great as we wish it would be.

At points, we want to experiment and try things out because we're curious..I grew up with the idea that experimenting was okay, and a learning experience.

I'm not sure what exactly you're having trouble with.. but I hope that you can figure it all out for yourself. I know, it's hard sometimes..but I promise, you'll live.

Why dont people understand ,the pain of being a teenager?   They do, a lot of times they just forget how life was for them when they were a teenager, AND they can see the big picture, the one that tells them that three years down the road you won't even remember what's currently making you upset.


They say they want the best for us but how come i dont feel it??  You don't feel it because you're a teenager; you want to do things your way (which is completely okay) and you think that you don't need them to protect you from the pain that real life has to offer.


all they care about is themseleves   it may feel like this is true, but it's not. If they cared about just themselves, then they'd let you do what you wanted and let you deal with all the pain that real life has for you on your own.

I know it doesn't seem like it, and I know that you won't begin to understand properly until you get out of the house and are living on your own for a while, but your parents only want what's best for you. Believe me, being an independant adult isn't as fun as it sounds when you're a teen. Enjoy it while it lasts, because all too soon you'll be on your own trying to make your own decisions, and yes, life will burn you, and you'll look back and say "wow, being a teenager was great"

*hugs* until then though, don't be so hard on adults. The ones in your life love you and care about you, even if it's not apparant to you right now.
