What are some situations for teenagers that adults wouldn't understand?

I have this question as part of an English assignment. I'm not being lazy I just really can't think of anything to say without my teacher thinking I'm crazy. Please help!What are some situations for teenagers that adults wouldn't understand?
how it feels like your in love and then you realize you nvr were and adults just think teen dating is stupid





when your just so stressed from school and they're just like ';if you had my job... blah blah'; even though school is unbelievable hard





when you jsut dont feel like talking and they get mad at you for that.What are some situations for teenagers that adults wouldn't understand?
Social norms for teenagers. Parents seem to forget that kids dont have a whole life experience behind them so whats happening now IS their whole life. When you have someone teasing you or you did something embarrassing or a personal affliction of whatever type, parents tend to encourage them to ignore it or give it a few days and even try to give situational advice on what they should do in response to peers, what they dont realize is that their advice is outdated and kids these days are exposed to extremes everywhere! Television has de-sensitized our youth so that they go out and take massive amounts of drugs and kill kids at school and jump off tall buildings and a bike, then laugh at their friends when they break their leg.
Peer pressure, Not only is there the usual peer pressure of having sex and using drugs but there are so many portable (and sometimes expensive) techie devices out there that peer pressure is greater among teens now than what it used to be 20 or maybe even 10 years ago. The better (or more expensive) your device is, can determine how people judge you. The same goes with the type of clothes and shoes kids wear.
my mom doesn't understand my friends. She thinks one of my friends Taylor is a bad influence and just doesn't get that because she made bad disicions means that I'm like her. Eventhough she isn't a bad person. Sorry I'm just loading my problems on you.
*going to parties that are ';important'; to teens and not to adults


*hanging out with people ';cool'; for teens but not for adults





mainly the typical things- watch a chick flick if you have to -- there are normally lots in there.
Nothing because before anyone can be an adult they must first be a teenager so we have all been there, done that etc. so we have seen it all and then some. But then theres the metric system which we didnt grow up with
that's tough they were kids once too.





Bring guns to school is all I can think of.


School Shootings and why they happen.








I think you have to think of things that happen today that didn't happen 20 years ago.
how teenagers are having sex earlier and its not looked upon as such a big deal with teenagers, as it use to be.








or how more and more teens are getting pregnant.








hope i could help? =]
boys situations like when a boy dosent notice you and you want to change your style moms or dads woudnt indurstand trust me i know
That ';boys only pick on you because they like you.'; LOL OKAY MOM. What a bunch of crap.
That people make fun of you because all they say is ignore them but it is not that easy to do.
