I Am a Teenager

I kinda wish I made my age here 18+ to avoid people discrediting me for my age. I wish us teenagers didn't get such a bad rep on EP and SW.

I remember someone posting on EP that when they get replies from a teenager they don't even bother to read them. I'm gonna be honest here, but that kinda stung. We're so young and stupid that our opinion doesn't even matter? I hate my generation sometimes, seriously.

That's not to say we're all bad though. I've met some really really cool teens before who say things more profound and more amazing than any adult I've met. It just sucks that there has to be bad apples who ruin it for the rest of us. I'm not hating, but little 13-year-old masochistic wanting to show their willy to older men over the internet kinda contribute a little to our bad rep.

I just wish those kinds of people can just colonize some other planet and leave us be sometimes. I know I can be a bit annoying and immature sometimes, but I can get serious when it really comes down to it.

That's about it I think. I'm done ranting for now. Sorry to any older members who have to deal with those guys, as well as me at times (I dont show my privates to anyone though, just saying). Hopefully we can be seen better in the future, cause I hate being discredited

Yeah i know what you mean, this generation sucks... i'd much rather go back a few years if i could, this generation seems to be filled with idiots and assholes.. and i really don't see why people discredit people who are younger, maturity doesn't come from age.. it comes from experience, i act like the troll under the bridge from time to time, and i may goof off some times, but as you said, i can be mature and serious when it comes down to it

The adults should no better.if the kid doesn't.

I have nothing against kids, it is just that we are at different stages in our lives and I don't find much in common with them for a friendship.

I am respectful towards young people as long as they are respectful towards me.

I did not live in an era were kids and adults were "buddies" and I still think that is the best way.

I do however remember how it felt to be young and not listened to and like I have said if the teen is not disrespectful towards me, I will be respectful towards them.

I have met some excellent young people,so, I know you are not all bad.

Take this time as a learning experience, enjoy it, because it goes by so fast.

There's good and bad in every generation, and people disregard others for many reasons. Some for age, some for behavior, some for gender. We're all here for different reasons, some quite narrow and well-defined is all. I guess what I'm saying is don't let it get you down. Just be you. Enjoy the ones you can enjoy and let the others go on their way. We all experience this to some degree in just about every arena of life regardless of age. Look to the good. :)
I agree wholeheartedly. 👏
