Getting sick of people who thinks all kids and or teens are rotten

[Mattemma]

I am suprised so many people have the nerve to talk bad about a person in front of them...and when they have not even done anything.

I like people of all ages until they do something to make me uncomfortable,and then I only dislike the person doing the deed. I don't think I have ever said anything to a person.Walking away from them suits me just fine.

I know people like to generalize about bad teen drivers,but I have dealt with more bad/aggresive drivers that were not teens.

Some teens are crazy though! LOL I am a teen, and i act WAY diff. But i totaly understand were you are coming from! But there are a lot of weird kids out there! I too can not wait till i am 20. but then people will think i am a drinking, partying (lol) kid! But we will prove them wrong! We cant let this bug us!

As a parent of one teenager, and two twenty-somethings, I have to say that, in my experience, the "WAY diff" teens are the most interesting, and often the smartest ones.

The harshest judges of any group are their peers, it's sad the way they can target each other. The worst? So-called adults. I say so-called because they may be legal adults by age, but maturity wise they are ignorant with the behavior of a spoiled 2 year old with a new toy.

Chicken Girl, if it helps, the most interesting and successful people at my 10 year high school reunion were the "way diff" kids back in the day. They had all turned into the coolest adults. The "In Crowd" had pretty much peaked in high school and had done nothing really remarkable since. Be different.

I know a lot more rotten adults than kids!!! My older son is 13, and I like the age he's at. He's a lot of fun to do things with now! Most of you are good kids, it's the bad ones that get the press. When little kids are a problem, it's usually something or someone else at the root of it. Hang in there! You're awesome!

Here is a funny story my daughter was 22 when she had my 1st grand daughter we were at the store getting some baby things I had 2 older woman start yelling at me for allowing my 14 year old daughter to have a child. I mean I am in my 40's but they were screaming at me. My daughter pulled out her ID and showed them that she was 22 and a legal adult they walked off with out even saying sorry. So just don't let what people say bother you let it roll off your back like water off a ducks back. Some people will never understand. Some of my kids friends where different guys with long hair piercing ect. but I did not judge them by their looks but by who they were. Hang in there things do get better spend your time with people who don't judge people and ignore the ones that do. Remember this to shall pass.

Ditto what everyone else is saying. It's just unfortunate generalizations, and really there are people of all ages who behave badly. Kids, teenagers, and adults all can be hard to deal with at times. It just depends on the person. There are annoying people of all ages, and there are great people of all ages. If we can help it, it's better not to make generalizations about groups of people. That said, of course it's human nature to make those generalizations, so sometimes we just have to accept that it happens. It's not a good side of humanity, but...well, we've just got to try not to take it personally, and correct people by providing a good example.

AMEN AMEN AMEN!

The ppl who "had it all" back then; most of the guys are overweight, have no hair or very little (and this was a 20 yr reunion lol), have a mediocre job, STILL DRINK like nuts..one had an abusive wife..go figure...
the girls who "had it all" had nothing major to show for it..and were STILL SNOOTY...

I didnt have it all, not even close....I'm not remotely "cool" in my life now, but I am a good solid wife, mom and business person. Now mind you, my biz doesnt do a million a yr etc..but we are
doing about $250,000 for a home based internet biz..I think thats pretty good..I want to expand and will, but we are waiting to be debt free first; so in 2 yrs I think we'll be ready to expand....
until then, I'm a homeschooling mom to my son, a pretty active mom to my other 2 girls at home a great support system to my 20 yr old, am a ranking belt in taekwondo (do competitions when I can/want/desire), volunteer for the food pantry...and a servant of God..

(BTW-- here is my website; NO not to buy..just to show you.. www.toysgoroundonline.com AND I am a featured merchant thru amazon.com...

IMO...thats pretty good.....you just stay who you are...do the RIGHT things...and you'll end up cooler than me as an adult!!

Dont let what others say or do define who you are or will become...
I did do that; I did NOT go to college because A: I was told by my school guidance counselor I wasnt good enough and B: By most of the kids in my class, I wasnt smart enough..
I believed them..now 20 yrs later, I really wish I could have, my biz could have been started much earlier than what it was...and who knows where I could have been by now...
