Why do teenagers think there life is so hard?

Because they are just beginning to confront problems. After you get a little older, you get used to the stuff that used to put you in a tizzy. Also, teens global view seems to center around themselves. I think that takes time to grow out of too.Why do teenagers think there life is so hard?
Their friendships become more make-or-break, relationships more intense, and because their daily schedules are always so full, with school, multiple subjects' worth of homework, extra-curricular activities, sports and social urgings. And also a requirement from parents and science for at least 8 hours of sleep every night.Why do teenagers think there life is so hard?
cuz they think they know what time it is and they have no clue,raging hormones distort it all
Honestly, because some of us are really naive and others dwell on things. But mostly because we're experiencing a LOT of pressure for the first time in our lives. Between trying to make our parents proud secretly but not wanting to let them in at the same time thinking that they don't understand anything. Also the pressure to be accepted by others, because we soo desperately want to be liked. Thirdly we are trying to figure out who we are and what we want to do w/ our lives and where we are headed. What people sometimes forget is when you're a teenager your making the choices that will affect your life forever and that kind of freaks us out a little bit and it makes our lives slightly difficult to deal w/. But some of us get through it okay and some of us don't, just like some of us show how hard are lives are while others try to hide it. If you think about it, adults aren't That much different. They're just more experienced w/ life.
We have to deal with school, peer pressure, peer problems, for girls Aunt Flo, our parents, and fighting the urge to not have sex, drink, or do drugs.





As for me yea I face aunt flo, my parents, school, and peer pressures but i know adults have it harder. they have to pay bills and work and provide for their family if they have one and soo soo much more that i don't even wanna think about dealin with.
bcuz our parents do not understand or listen 2 us
Its not always true...But alot of teens do have a hard life. Its one of the difficult stages. Also, girls are moody due to their monthly friend. And when guys dont get food and sex they can get mad too...But again, some teenagers deal with very difficult things.
Because their life isn't like those kids on Disney. Plus, a lot of kids want what their friends have and if their parents can't afford it or won't give in and let them have it, they feel bad. We live in a materialistic world, and a lot of kids think that they are defined by the things that they have, not by the things that they do or how they behave. I've often noticed that the kids who do have it tough are the ones who are trying to cover it up.
this question was brought up in my music class and my teacher presented a very interesting point....


Teenagers think their parents don't understand them, but how is that so? Parents were teenagers once so therefore they DO understand what being young is like. Teens on the other hand have never been parents, nor adults, so saying to their guardians YOU DONT UNDERSTAND is completely ironic.


but as to answer the question, I think life's pretty good... I think being a teen is MUCH easier than an adult...eeeek few more years for meee :p
because theres so much pressure on us with school, our friends, drinking, drugs, and our parents.
because it is... they were just little kids not that long ago and now they're almost adults but they still don't have the knowledge or experience yet to handle the adult world, their parents want to prepare them for that in the best most responsible way possible yet they don't want to let go of their babies. just living in these times too - now that it's okay to just sleep with ';friends'; and i'm pretty sure girls aren't labled sluts anymore (not sure about this) but casual sex is much more accepted - that is emotionally draining. plus there is so much more media exposure as well as more drugs both illegal and prescription. i wouldn't want to be a teen today!
Because they don't know how to handle themselfs right...I'm 14 and I have a great time! I take no s/hit, but I'm not ';rebellious';...I get along great with my parents and if they arn't listening that's ok becuase they are just human and huge peices of s/hit on society...I have some of the best parents you could have, and I've saw alot of parents...alot of them, they all have the same mentality...because there lives are s/hit they can't get their head out of their own @$ses, they work a factory job or work in a business park...they all have the same stupid stories...who cares if they won't listen, because nooo one wants to listen to their BS! Your whole life is ahead of you and just because they are ***** up's dosn't mean you have to be! Parents are just a crutch, but the crutch won't shut the f/cuk up sometimes and they make you weaker because they hold you up...so get off that crutch and learn how to provide for yourself and work as hard as you can...My point is just be your own person and don't take s/hit from anyone...because 95% of people you wil ever see do absolutely nothing with their lives, they go to work push a button or pull a leaver all day and get home and plop in front of the TV for the next 40 years of their life...be that 5% and go travel the world and don't listen to stupidity...Ignorance breeds ignorance...and money also breeds ignorance...have you saw another John D. Rockefeller from that family? NOPE! Because they got the money so they got lazy...point and case, be productive and quit b/itching about your life, you need to live it or before you know it it's gone...
i do?
well i really don't have boy problems and so yeah......and i don't understand either.....once i had a boy problem and tried to talk to my mom bout it but she just didn't understand so yeah....that's probably y teens complain so much is cus their parents don't understand them or listen something along those lines
