Earlier a child was considered an adult when they reached puberty. Today, a child can stay at home and live with their parents until they are 26 without any problem. In actual fact, teenage years is a fake lengthening of childhood and a part of society of adults that are still treated like children.
The problem with reaching a teens childhood years can be wearisome for everyone occupied. The matter is that the teen’s mind and body are informing them they are adults but all people next to them still treats them like a child. As a rule, anger and depression is the result in most cases. With all the potential being corked up it begins to boil over into society and into the families. There is an interesting fact that divorce rates are very high when there are teenagers in the home. All the frustration is vented somewhere.
All parents talk about how difficult and unbearable their children become when they reached teen age. If the tables were turned these parents wouldn’t behave much differently. Societies that have fake restrictions and obligatory laws that restrict rights, freedom, and development, overthrow their government in time. Why should we want our teens to feel, or act, in a different way?
It doesn’t mean that teens should be able to walk the streets without rules or law. Teens simply should have the freedom of true property rights, to sign contracts, work, begin businesses, live on their own, and make decisions about education and health care. Frequently, most adults consider teens are unable to make such decisions. Teens are unable of "real" love much less ownership decisions. The truth is teens are more capable of these things than society thinks they are.
Study depicts that most cognitive argumentation and brain functioning peak at 14-15 years of age. Actually incidental memory (remembering things by chance) is excellent with these early teens and is almost non-existent with people 50-60 year olds. As for the reason why so many teens do something stupid when they are truly very smart is simple – they are acting within limits given them. When cooped up with hundreds of other teens with pointless lives the consequences are unsurprising. They do the same things as all the other teens.
A teen’s world is filled with freedom, responsibility, and realism. In preference to working and interacting with adults they spend over 65 hours a week with fellow teens. This huge part of teens is targeted by violent marketers of large businesses. Lazy teens with mock-responsibility spend over $200 billion each year on music, clothing, and make-up. They beautify their pseudo-world with posters of pop idols and other pointless objects. Rather than working along side adults they are warehoused with other teens in a system built to contain and restrict them.
