Were you a troubled teen?

Agricola

Was listening to Sean Moncrieff there earlier. He had this woman on who was talking about gender stereotypes, how boys are seen to be sulky and withdrawn in their teens, while girls are seen to be stroppy, bitchy etc.

I was just thinking how I never really experienced the angst ridden teenage years. I was, by and large, a dream for my parents!

Was always polite, helped out at home from an early age, continued to value the company of older people, didnt go through any spells as a goth.........
I always thought the whole sulky, moaning, layabout teenager thing was abit of an American problem. Most of my friends growing up were the same. Maybe its cos Im from down the country and am obviously the salt 'a da earth!

So my question is were you a pain in the ass as a teenager, or were ya a model of respectabilty?

I wasn't the worst I did have my moments.

Dude, you're a disgrace to your parents!

molloyjazz

Yeah, i was a right cúnt in my teens.. have you got a problem with that!

liah

Yes, but I damn well had good reasons to be.

Just because someone appears troubled doesn't mean they're selfish or an emo. I had a lot to deal with that most kids never would.

I was a model of respectability, right up until the moment I went out of my parents' front door each day.

stovelid

Was a moody little know-it-all bollix with stupid haircuts who got sent home from school a lot and got into some other bother.

I secretly wouldn't give tuppence for teenagers who act like OAPs.

OP sounds like one of those comic characters that have names like Walter The Softy or Cedric Soft.

Joe Cool

Troubled? No.

Bit of a spa? Yes, some things never change.

Still technically a teenage but was relatively good over the year. I had my moments but they got ironed out over the years. Still think to this very day that I think more than most people my age though.....:D I think we need the insight of brummy for the most legitimate view of teenage life?

Being Canadian?

epgc3fyqirnbsx

I was a grumpy ignorant argumentative little bastard who thought Kurt Cobain was God and life was ****e.

I'm sound as a pound now though

Amn't I? :mad:

weepee

My teenage years got lost in a wash of death and violence-sadly.

Tar.Aldarion

I was a good kid, sure I got in trouble or in fights and that but grand, they even asked me to work in the school :S more a of a troubled adult really!

I wouldnt give a ha'penny for little know-it-all bollixs who grow up to be bigger know-it-all bollixs. So I guess we're even.

Boring! =P

Early to mid-teens: pale make-up, black clothes and an untidy and cheeky cnut.

Mid-late teens: The fun starts. Going to school hungover was a regular occurance. Started seeing a guy when I was 16 and he was 20, was always in the pub with him and I would go missing for days. The amount of times my neighbours would have caught a glimpse of my short-skirted arse sneaking out of the back of the house.. I thought out-smarting my parents was hilarous, becauase they were far to strict with me. I was thrown out of the house eventually.

I was selfish and reckless I know that now. It doesn't mean I've changed though.. :cool:

Is that why you are a registered offender?

I guess it's linked, yeah.

I might not have been barred but i definitely was not welcome which was fine because I hated church anyway. I wasn't bad all the time but when I was it was really bad.

OutlawPete

Yup, troubled adult too.

Quite the opposite in most cases, I'd imagine.
