Defining a teenager is really a hard job! I was just trying to do it when I started browsing. Just read what I have just found! Interesting, right?

Defining teenagers

A Teenager is...

A person who can't remember to walk the dog but never forgets a phone number.

A weight watcher who goes on a diet by giving up candy bars before breakfast.

A youngster who receives his/her allowance on Monday, spends it on Tuesday, and borrows from his/her best friend on Wednesday.

Someone who can hear a song by Madonna played three blocks away but not his mother calling from the next room.

A whiz who can operate the latest computer without a lesson but can't make a bed.

A student who will spend 12 minutes studying for her history exam and 12 hours for her driver's license.

A youngster who is well informed about anything he doesn't have to study.

An enthusiast who has the energy to ride a bike for miles, but is usually too tired to dry the dishes.

A connoisseur of two kinds of fine music: Loud and Very Loud.

A young woman who loves the cat and tolerates her brother.

A person who is always late for dinner but always on time for a rock concert.

A romantic who never falls in love more than once a week.

A budding beauty who never smiles until her braces come off.

A boy who can sleep until noon on any Saturday when he suspects the lawn needs mowing.

An original thinker who is positive that her mother was never a teenager.

Defining teenagers

Well some of that defining can be true, but others.....
I am a Teenager. Yes, I have some of those aspects.
However there are some aspects, that don’t defining a teenager, already.
A teenager is.... (for me)
. a person that doesn’t like to work (only the work that his/her parents gave)
. a person that like to do what he/she wants
. a person that one day has some objectives and in the other day have others
. a person that fight for what she/he believes
. a person that doesn’t like to be ignore
. a person that likes to command
. a person that believes that now more that her/his fathers
. a person that trust more in his/her friends that in his/her parents
. a person that likes to go out with his/her friends, but never with his/her parents/family
. a person that loves new experiences

Well these are some of the aspects, that I think that defining a teenager.
Others teenagers maybe think in others aspects, because these aspects depends of the teenagers and the groups where there are inside.

Glad to know that you share

Glad to know that you share some of these aspects and others too. I myself was a teenager, of course, and I know what it feels like when you are one. It's the time you fight against almost everything and try to find out about yourself. The things you added to how to define teenagers are also very important and help understand them.

TC (take care)
