[quote=Anonymous]Everyone kind of acts like "watch out" when your kid turns 13 with this idea that from 13-18 ish they turn into moody, mean assholes who hate you and have all these big problems they try to hide from you. Obviously this is not every kid but given the prevalence of the stereotype, does this describe a lot of teens? How hard was it for you or your friends to have a teen in the house? What kinds of problems did he or she face? What kinds of problems did their friends face or your friends' teens face? Did anyone just skate through these years issue free? (from drugs, alcohol, addiction, eating disorders, social issues with friendship groups, bullying, sexual harassment and assault, pregnancy, bad grades, defiance, behavior problems at school or home, problems with motivation and executive functioning, etc. Are there problems I'm forgetting? lol)[/quote]
