Do you blow on your food when it’s hot or do you just “hasafashafsas” until you can chew it? If you belong to the second group, you know what you are. When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.
A teenager is always too tired to hold a dishcloth but never too tired to hold a phone. Teenage is the period where you discover whether you like water or not. Some of you were kept indoors for so long as teenagers, you started to believe the lie that you are introverted.
Parenting is tough. When your child is little, all you want is for them to play alone in their room for an hour so you can have some peace and quiet. Then they become teenagers and all you want is for them to come out of their room for an hour and actually talk to you.
If you sleep too much, your parents will complain. Don’t get enough sleep, your parents will complain. If you eat too much, your parents will complain. If you don’t eat enough, your parents will complain. if you’re always in your room, your parents will complain. If you go out too much, your parents will complain. You can’t win!
A teenager is someone ready for a zombie apocalypse but not ready for a math test tomorrow. Teenagers are the most misunderstood people on the planet. They are treated like children and expected to act like adults. The main problem with teenagers is that they’re just like their parents were at that age.
Raising a teenager is hard. But being a teenager is hard too which is why our kids need someone they trust to lean on, to come for advice and to share their lives – the good, the bad and the ugly. Having a front-row seat in our kids’ lives is a far better place than every other seat. Except for a seat at the dentists’, it’s unmatched.
I know I’m supposed to be preparing my teenager for life and all, but it’s hard when they already know everything. Teenagers! Tired of being harassed by your parents? Act now! Move out, get a job and pay your way, quick! While you still know everything.
You will live to regret this decision

Nah…get them fast tracked to what they want to do and delete their negative extension! Then set them to clean up their own levels! Soon be humble after a good eye transition!
Haha, once they get a taste of that humble pie, they’ll come running back
By the time they have finished they will be irrelevent as eye will have transitioned!
Eye do not doubt that one bit
Goes for their extended adults lol!
You’re not wrong 😆
I love judicial balance and master linguistics! lol
Judicial balance. I’ll use that one 😅

Fair enough 😅

They’ve always worked 😅
I enjoyed my teenage years. Most of it anyway. Well-written post👏🏽
Act now, move out, and get a job😭🤣🤣 while you still know everything. Yes, they will definitely regret it
Haha, as soon as the first bill hits, you realize you’ve made a grave mistake moving out 😂
I thought the “out” we moved to, was the first bill or y’all got rent-free houses when you moved?
Lmao, who is doing that for you?
At least one of us was having fun 😅
I lived with four teenagers in the house.
Twice.
Once my kids and then grandkids.
There should be a law against that.
Haha, how are you still alive?
You deserve a medal!
Wish this was written some decades ago, I would have had a spectacular teenage life.
It’s never too late to go back 😅
Yo!!!
Im a teenager
On point Gottfried!!!!!!
Haha, must be nice
Don’t move out!
Lolll
I’m considering! 😉😉
haha, don’t say I didn’t warn you!
Life is hard!!
It’s our duty to find the happiness…
Not run away…
Lol
I wonder what made me say that!?
haha, what if you need to run away to find happiness?
Then you gotta do what you gotta do Gottfried!!!!
Lol
Stay in your parents house!
Where I’mmma go with no money Gottfried???
To bed!
Lol
Good idea
Considering I just woke up!?

Don’t judge a book by its cover!
Or a day by its beginning
Or a time it’s season

Random question
What your take on LGBTQ+
I have no take really 😆
Really?
Incredibly yes
I see!
😅
Nice Post
Thanks Nkem!
We can never satisfy our parents, they complain about everything.
Especially the paragraph where you talked about if you eat too much they’ll complain and if you eat less they’ll still complain..
If you add weight too , they’ll complain and if you’re underweight they’ll still complain ,I’m currently going through this…small weight I added and my mum won’t let me rest…when I didn’t add she will say I’m not eating, I’m tired. 😂😂😂
haha, have you seen the prices of gas and groceries? They’re allowed to be permanently pissed.
Loll
They say we gotta be grateful for what we have!
But they aren’t grateful for us!!!
Lol
They can choose whether or not they want to be grateful!
You do u!!
IL do me
I feel you!
That’s a good thing
Indeed
💯 💯 And
😅
The and was a mistake!!!
Yes alright
Funny but so true
Thank you Ebuka
Thank you for reading!
Well written.
The life of a teenager is very hard, especially where I come from.
Very frustrating 💔
Thanks for reminding me 😊
I can only imagine.
It’s frustrating when you’re not surrounded by actual role models!
Sure👌
Such is life
May we go on to better models and beacons of light.
I remember when I thought my teen years were my toughest years. I wanted to become an adult so quickly.
Hahaha. How naive.🥲
Haha, a grave mistake.
Those were the most carefree years
