What is a teenager?

Anybody who has ever seen a film detailing teen-partying knows for a fact that they can't possible be human!

Well... it would seem to depend on gender.

It's a well known fact that "little boys" are made of snakes and snails and puppy dog tails. By the time those little boys have grown into teenagers the snakes have almost certainly devoured all the snails.. and the tails? Decomposed. For a certainty.

So, teenage males are snakes.

It is an equally well known fact that "little girls" are sugar and spice and everything nice. And, tragically, that almost certainly means that what teenage girls are is "long since devoured by society". You can't just leave delicious sugars and spices laying around without them being gobbled up.

And there you have it.

They are regular human beings going through the hardest stage in life. They must transition from a childish, blithe time, into the real world full of social, political, and financial problems.

Were you not a teenager at one stage? Where you born human lose your humanity at thirteen and then regain it at twenty?

This debate is in the comedy section. 'Anybody who has seen a movie detailing teen partying must realize that teens can't possibly be human...'

Fair enough, maybe I should have put:) at the end of my post then, if you are after farce then I would say that teenagers are like the Hymenoptera in that the pick a queen (popular kids), and through a cocktail of chemicals (as drones) scramble to do her bidding.

some teenagers, are from a different planet, they keep moaning at you ,i want this , i want that, there never satified. they think that there is a magic money tree, and that you can get money off it at any time for them.. no sense of reason with them, they dont live in reality . their bedrooms are the local rubbish tip, you will find your missing items, in their rooms. like finding the pet cat, dead and stiff under the bed, it could not get out, from all the piles of dirty clothes that had been thrown on it , whilst asleep.. a teenager cannot be broken in no shape or forms, they have rules and laws, that as a parent youve never even heard of.you wonder what happened to your lovely little boy or girl, then you realize they have grown up, maybe you could described a teenager as a vampire, they bleed you dry,, of your hard earned money, thats for sure, they like to come out at night, and they sleep all day. Or maybe a teenagers like the taxman, they take everything , you own from you. but all be said, through all the crap they throw your way, all the stress they, give you, we as parents still love are little oddbods

The word teenager was created because they are young adults who are irresponsible and not mature.. The world created that term
