Why is being a teenager so hard?
Answer:
And being an adult is SOOOO much easier.right...
This is the pregnancy catagory. Are you pregnant?
what?? what are you tallking about being a teenager is the best that can happened to you in your life at least im happy and is not hard to be a teenager
because people dont understand us. plain and simple
Because there are so many changes happening in a relatively short amount of time.
I promise you... life gets better... just tough it out.
Think your teachers and parents are hard. Wait till you get a job and a boss.
Ya it's tough. But no worries! It gets so much better in your 20's. Stick it out bud! Good Luck!!
to prepare you for adulthood..
Because its like your in the middle of elementary and i guess colledge. And so i guess you arent used to being independent because in elementary they "protect" you. So when your trying to learn how to organize and other life skills, you just stress over it. Sometimes it can be teachers, friends, family, life problems, and personal, grades.etc
Much uncertainty - in the twilight zone between child and adult.
Most teenagers don't "get it" because they are still figuring out life. Undecided as to career, education, etc. Still heavily influenced by peer pressure that is frequently going in the wrong direction.
Yea its hard for everyone and I think it's like that for a reason. As a teenager your learning how to grow up and deal with problems and situations that you'll soon have to deal with all by yourself. But I'm telling you it gets a whole lot better when you get older.
It's tough because as parents we want to protect you, but try to let you grow up without growing too fast. I'm a parent, not of teenagers but it really wasn't that long ago that I too was a teenager. I think it's the begining of the breakdown in communication. We don't know how to talk to you, but I'm sure we want to.
Also, hormones are more active in our teenage yrs. And those are the root of all things evil. Well, that was an exageration. But they really do make changes in us that we can't figure out.
this is a really vague question, is there anything in particular that's bugging you?
being a teenager is super hard. This is coming from someone who had a very very difficult childhood and very dysfunctional teen years. I would also give up just about everything to be able to go back and do it all again. It is so much easier than what i have going on now, and thats just normal grown up life.
It is hard because this is the time in your life where you are still trying to decide who you want to be...What you want to do for a living, what sort of friends you REALLY want to have, and how to break free from your parents. (Hopefully you care enough about them to do it without hurting them, but attaining your own Independence is part of the teenage years.)
As you morph from teen to adult, the growing pains can be pretty bad, but remember this: Be true to yourself. Think your own thoughts, and do not be afraid to stand up for what you believe! Don't let friends(?) talk you into doing anything you don't want to , or that you know is wrong. Take it from me, (I'm 45, so this is the voice of experience here!), many of the decisions and choices you make today will follow you around most of your life!! So make good ones, and don't give up! It does get better (somewhere around the age of 30!)
Actually, I loved my early 20's, the Independence once I attained it, but 30 was the best! And yes, some of my teen choices are STILL following me around. The results weren't all good, either.
There are many reasons. Teenagers are going through puberty, which doesn't make things much easier. They're also not quite kids, but their not adults. You're trying to figure out who you are and so are all the other teens around you. None of that stuff is easy.
Also, life itself is just plain hard. No matter how old you are, it's always going to be hard.
so many things are changing... you are starting to come to the real world, so its hard at first.. you have things driving you crazy. like hormones, pressure at school, friends, boyfriends or girlfriends, parents... its alot to deal with
things will get easier soon... this happens to just about everyone

Because being grownup is harder. I know, they say it and its hard to believe that adults arent trying to shut you up, but it's true. I'm barely twenty, and already getting a hard kick in the face by reality. The issues you face as a teenager do not go away, they just dwarf in comparison to 'real' problems. That's not to say that teenage issues arent real and difficult, but that as you grow and adapt to them, you will be better equipped to deal with adult issues. It sucks, but its necessary to survive in the real world.
its not so bad i mean i enjoy life all the time i guess its just what im good at lol:)
Because it is a big adjustment to go from being a youngster to an adult. There is also a lot to learn. Plus your parents don't want you to end up dead before you're an adult, so they make you follow a lot of rules. Just remember that they do it because they love you. Hang in there. It won't last forever. I'll be praying for you.
it's hard due to aggresiveness of such age
because in high school most of your peers only see whats on the outside and judge you by that, when if they took the time to get to know you, your a really nice person. it sucks i know, but once you get to be a senior in high school, you realize that as slow as every grade went, it really went by fast, and your never coming back to high school, and that even though you went through tough, embarrassing times, you had some really good ones too. and in the end you sometimes wish that you were back there, were life was all routine, get up, school, homework, (work, if your old enough), and sleep, then do it all over again the next day. now you have to deal with bills, buying your own food, clothes, school for most, minimum wage jobs , but its harder. at least for awhile.
If you really think about it, being a teenager, other than your peers picking on you occasionally, is easier than being an adult and living on your own, and having all the responsibility.
It gets better, trust me. Hang in there.
Enjoy it while it last, and make the most of it, you don't get a 2nd chance.
It isn't. It is what you make it. If you wanna make it hard then it will be hard. I had no problems when i was a teenager and that was not that long ago.
It's only hard if you make it hard. Just be outgoing, have fun, enjoy yourself. If you feel to tied down by homework and othe stuff, screw it off and go party.
you right. being a teenager is sooo hard.
you should just move out, get a job, pay your own bills, get married, and make all your own decisions while you still know everything.
Because your body is changing and you don't understand what is going on anymore. You've gone from being a carefree fun loving child to someone you don't even recognize anymore and you have 7 years (of being a teenager) to prepare yourself for adulthood.
Instead of opening up to your parents - you keep it all bottled up inside and feel no one understands what you're going through. You need to reverse this - confide in your parents (remember, they've been through this before) and get suggestions on how to deal with these difficult years.
Once you become an adult - you'll look back on your teenage years and wonder why you put yourself through the hassle when all you had to do is ask your parents for some help.
Teenagers who are close to their parents have a much easier time, going through teenagehood, than those who aren't.
Or, if you're not comfortable talking to your parents - then find a family member you can be open with.
I have a grand daughter who is beginning to go through some developing changes and believe me - she asks her mom and I tons of questions. All of her questions, and our answers, will make her survival (of teenagehood) much easier.
we as parents have just spent many years giving you the tools to be great adults and be come a productive member of society we give you alil responsibility we expect so much of you but..
we dont let you do anything we hold onto our babys for as long as we can and we control everthing we do let you do
I rather enjoy it, actually.
because we goe through alot of changes as a teenager etc...
us teens make it hard for our self no one else can but us.
Actually you should be enjoying your teenage years whilst they last, when you get into university or start working it'll be 100x worse, trust me, I used to think being a teenager was pretty bad as well, until I had to face the real world and started having responsibilities. Life gets pretty stressful after you leave school, there are no teachers or parents to tell you what to do or guide you, you have to take the initiative to be productive and self-sufficient and you have to fend for yourself. Have fun being a teenager and cheer up :).
Becasue everything is changing when you are a teen. Puberty, learning to drive, getting ready to go to college. You are changing from being a little kid to an adult. That change is hard and teenagers don't like to say how the "feel" but things feel and look different to them. They are so desperate to become an adult but still a bit afraid of letting go of childhood. Its like a security blanket. The ones who want to be an adult get really angry and dramaish when their parents won;t treat them the way they want to. Some parents dont want to let go and therefor smother the teens making life hard.
