[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]...Disrespectful teen on the Metro. OK, I haven't read the other thread, but I was a disrespectful teen on the L in Chicago at one point. I became a fully functional adult with manners. It's probably not the parenting. It's probably being a teen, feeling invincible, feeling some sense of unfairness in the world without quite knowing what to do about it, swirling hormones, feeling safe with your friends, knowing that people are definitely judging you for your youth or your color or you gender or your socioeconomic status or your WHATEVER it is, and letting lose with the stress. [/quote] Nope. Some people just so slow and pick up manners at the slower paste, like you. Ability to handle the stress is never equal to lack of manners. [/quote]
