Hello to all that read. I have been wondering what people think about teens around the age of 13-15. I have been around many teens and have seen many things happen around them. I for one think that they have done many things that they do not tell their parents. These things are unspeakable and shouldn't be done be kids of their age. So my question to you is, What do you think teens are these days, good, bad, messed up, or just fine? Please share your thoughts, many thanks and happy myLotting! :)

I can kind of see what you mean. Teens are getting pregnant at such young ages now. I do kind of think that they have no future too, but what about those that really care about education? Will they still have a future?

I don't mean to generalize they aren't all bad, I'm an old guy and have seen a lot, it seems the percentage of good to bad has gotten worse! I don't blame then either, My dad fought in WW-2 to make a better life for me and it was but was it really? Sure it was easier than his and the kids of today is even easier, but when you start loosing the meaning of working for your living, and having GOOD close friends, when does it stop helping and start hurting them as a people? I was just reading about vitamin D you get that from the sun! Well young people don't even go outside anymore? It's creating a crisis! tdemex

Are you talking about teens in general? Generally speaking, I'd like to think that most teens are not that bad, obey their parents, and just do things that are appropriate for their age. However, having spent the past four years in high school, I'm well aware of how badly some teenagers can act. It is important to realize though that not all teens are like this and I know many many teens who are more mature than some adults!

Yes, I agree that teens can be very out of control when not under adult supervision. High school is usually when lots of major things happen to teens. But there are also those who are very educated and are very muture for their age. Thank you for sharing! Happy myLotting!

Hey, Well as some of the people has posted in this topic, most of the teens these days are all falling pregnant, and that is really quite bad. I know a few people that have been found pregnant at 17, and they don't even have any financial support. Make sure you have a good day, God bless and Happy Lotting!!
