True, my older cousin believes this and when I was about 11 she treated me like she would treat one of her friends (she was 18) and she admits it and I understood everything.
Yeah, I've been thinking about that, too. Adults think that way because they're "older" and more "wiser", which is a load of crap, because I know for a fact that kids have a better understanding than adults.
Good post, by the way. I like posts that go deep. =]
ergh i know! and i hate it when they say that teenagers are all apathetic and stuck up and have that oh im so cool attitude, coz thats absollute bullshit, we're people too!! my parents are always saying stuff like oh look another bossy teenager who knows everything blah blah grr it pisses me off soo much
That's perfectly true. Especially when it comes to my dad and stepmom. They think they know everything, especially my dad. My dad harrasses me about my music; all he cares about is guitar lines and how well they can play; he alwasy has something to say about the modern bands I listen to.
Examples:
Queens of the Stoneage=Sex Pistols
My Chemical Romance=The Clash
Coheed and Cambria=Rush
He complains about bands not having a new sound. He's recently gotten into country music, and correct me if I'm wrong, but every slow country song sounds the same...and all country music is monotonous and 80% of the songs talk about the same things. top 5: America, beer, breaking up/cheating, parents, love
