[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I totally agree that this is normal behavior for a teen of today. Aside from school, they often have no obligation to do anything but amuse themselves. They have rivers of time and privilege. There is nothing for them to look forward to because they chafe under few constraints. Adulthood will bring professional stress and financial obligation but no corresponding freedom. If you are not extremely adventurous or ambitious by nature, why would you look forward to taking on "boring" responsibilities? Mom and Dad already provide a comfortable existence with every imaginable luxury. [/quote] This is a good point. One thing that motivated me as a teenager was just to get a place to live where I wouldn't have to share one bathroom with four other people. I would have here see a therapist. Maybe read Man's Search for Meaning. She sounds somewhat philosophical and intelligent.[/quote]
