please answer the exact behavioral traits of teenagers.What are the behavioral traits of teenagers?
Adolescents do not have a fully formed brain which is why they have difficulty making good decisions or tend towards impulsivity. The prefrontal cortex of the brain is responsible for social behavior and control. Because it is not fully formed, teens tend to perform risky behaviors. Teens also have a tendency to think with the limbic system which controls sex drive and emotions.
Because the frontal lobe of the brain matures around 20 years, adolescents are not as capable of long ranging planning as are adults. They have more trouble controlling emotions and sexual activity.What are the behavioral traits of teenagers?
if we had the answer to that question, many parents would be so happy!
i do know that many teenagers tend to seek independence and forge strong connections to their peer groups. they also are trying to find their place in the world and crave acceptance and recognition for themselves as individuals of value. this is not from my psychology study, this is just from observing teens.
many teens are friendly, like me, i want to have many friends.

Why do people think all teenagers r bad?
when i hear people say that it drives me crazy! not all r like that! its only the bad ones who make the news!
pleaz no stupid answers.Why do people think all teenagers r bad?
Historically, teenagers go through a rebellious stage. While some don't, a lot actually do, whether it be arguing and being grumpy with their folks or worse...I mean, I know I did, arguing with my mum and dad, ignoring what they told me, etc...Why do people think all teenagers r bad?
statistic proven them right
that's why you pay higher car insurance
you like to drink
party and have premartial sex
so the reputation is justly deserved
this is nto ot say there are not good teens
there are
but there are far more screwed up ones that good ones
I don't feel that way, all 4 of my children where 13 - 19 at the same time, Sometimes things got a little hay wired, but mostly it was fun watching them grow up and having a good time, plus they all where my best friends too. Sounds silly to others, but they helped raise me to be a better person and moma.
I don't think that all teenagers are bad. You are right- it IS the bad ones that make the news. You rarely hear about the teenagers doing something good. Why don't you tell us what really good thing you've done lately?
I like teenagers. I think they're funny and cute; fun to watch. But, you're right, only the bad ones make the news. And, they can be a trial at times, as they try to assert their independence and as their hormones surge. Nothing worse than a pack of teenagers with cell-phones on the train! But adults should remember: We were all teenagers once!!
No, that is a sterotype, I hate to hear that myself. When I was a teenager, adults didn't like me just because of that. It saddens me that people still believe that.
because people remember the bad things they did as teenagers and assume that all teens will do bad things.
You answered it yourself. The bad ones are the only ones that make the news. This makes it seem that all teenagers are bad. I say:
I am bad.
Because WE used to be teenagers !!!! duh
Its the most common stereotype unfortunately. Change it.
Not all people think all teenagers are bad. Thats also stereotyping. There are good and bad of everyone whether it be teens or adults. If you think everyone thinks you or other teens are bad I'm sure they will meet someone who thinks just the opposite. Don't believe everything you hear. That maybe an old saying but it's a true one.
It's a stereotype. All you can do is try to prove it wrong.
When people see the news that is going on today with kids doing things that fall below standards they get the impression that all kids are like that. Don't like it get you upset just prove people wrong do better then they expect you to
I don't think all people think teenagers are bad. I certainly don't. I know lots of teenagers that are great! Teenagers are going through a tough time, and they tend to be rebellious. But that is a part of growing into an adult.
Stereotyping, Statistics. etc..
because every generation rebels to try to be differant from the ones before, some times its good, for it opens up new ideas, and ways of doing things, and some times its a step into a way of life thats unmanageable, like revereing pimps and hos or wanting to emulate people with no moral compass ,like certain leaders that steal in office and get caught, im afraid that a lot of people paint themselves into the corner and lose their options in life by blindly following bad role models,, an olde dude
stereotyping
teens are good you have to think you were there once yourself
I have three great teenagers that behave badly but are good kids Got to love em
They tend to generalize one bad thing on everything.
Somes are extremely annoying, specially the ones who wouldn't even take off their annoyingly big backpack off their back in the bus. Stupidly annoying. The ones who do might be exceptions.
It is pretty simple. Generally people ony pay attention to the bad and gorry that is put on the news. Sooo, the media helps by only printing the bad. We don't hear about the teenagers who volunteer for hours each week, or get straight A's, or the ones that just do as they're told and obey their parents. It does not sell add space. I have lots of teenagers in my world and they are all great. Here is my suggestions, if you are a great or just well behaved teenager, just toot your own horn. Let the world know what I already know, that there are many great teenagers in the world.
It's always been that way. Some teenagers get in trouble, but it impacts on us all. I've gotten a lot of dirty looks, just walking through a store. I've had a friend who couldn't get gas at a gas station because the women running it didn't trust him to pay for the gas lol. I have though seen a lot of teenagers acting like idiots in malls and on the streets though, so it's better to be safe than sorry I guess...but I know it's still unfair for EVERYONE to be judged the same because of some little jackasses.
I think it's with every generation. I don't think there are so many bad teenagers, I just think they don't always make wise choices, but that's everyone, not just teenagers. I have 2 boys that just turned 17 %26amp; 18 and they're decent kids they just don't think right all the time. If it bothers you why not say something the next time you hear someone say something like that, confront them nicely, and maybe they'll have a change of heart.
I don't think all of them are bad. I have 2 good ones of my own.
unfortunately, one bad apple spoils the bunch. and youre stuck with the reputation. I work with a lot of great teenagers. But great teenagers don't make interesting news stories.
cuz they learning bout bad things and still immature so combined=stupid stunts
of course they think where bad look at some of the stuff teenagers have done its all horrible. oh wait whats this adults have done the same and worse. point made.
i HATE it when ppl say we are all bad ur right the STUPID ppl b4 us%26lt;not all of them%26gt; have ruined it for us the ppl b4 us had to do stupid things%26lt; once again not all of them%26gt; but some of them have ruined it for all of us!!!! it is not fair!
I would geuss, being a fellow teenager, is that it really is only the bad ones who make the news. I would also venture to geuss that the good ones have some flaw, and since most other teenagers are bad, the flaws are emphasized, and the teenager's good parts aren't being brought to attention.
I think you are a very well spoken teen-ager and i completely agree with you to the fullest extent. I believe that teen-agers are getting the raw end of life and something needs to be done with this. Luckily, when you grow up, people won't think of you as a drug addict or a crime committer.

Any fun snow ideas for teenagers?
So we have been snowed in our house for a week already and have ran out of fun ideas to do in the snow. any fun ideas for teenagers besides building a snowman or having a snowball fight?Any fun snow ideas for teenagers?
Amazing! When I was a teen, we made tons of money walking around the neighborhoods shoveling walks and driveways. But in this day and age that isn't practical that I've seen. Manual labor ? Gooood grief !Any fun snow ideas for teenagers?
Make an ice house. First build an igloo. Pull out the hose and slowly get it wet. It will turn to ice and stay there forever. You can even sculpt it once it turns to ice.

I feel left out becuase my family all had kids as teenagers and i didnt?
i have a huge family, there is ALWAYS at least one female pregnant at one time, i feel like i dont belong,all my cousins have had kids before there 18, im 20, and im a virgin! its so wierd, why are they all trashy like that and im not....I feel left out becuase my family all had kids as teenagers and i didnt?
You are better than them and have more self respect. Just take your life at your own pace.I feel left out becuase my family all had kids as teenagers and i didnt?
for one having a baby young is not trashy.I don't understand why you feel left out if you think it is trashy??????????
You are smart, you don't waste time on looking after children, you are young and pretty, you can enjoy freedom and beautiful single life until you find a really good man.
Well, I was going to say that you should feel intelligent instead of left out. But then you had to go and ruin it by calling **everyone** 'trashy', so now I鈥檓 going to say, stop being so damn judgmental. Just because someone has a child before the age of 18 does not automatically make them 'trashy' (and I didn鈥檛 have my first child until 25, so this is *not* a case of me being personally offended because I was one of 鈥榯hem鈥?. Don鈥檛 worry about what anyone else is doing, that鈥檚 not your business. You only need to worry about what you鈥檙e doing.
Don't feel left out. They all ruined their lives. You're still going strong.
Dude, don't feel left out. All they'll have to call themselves is a ';committed mommy!'; whilst you can actually make something of yourself. Please, for the love of God, don't cave into your family tradition. Stay strong.
they are your cousins, they have diffenert parents and were raised different. your parents realized that there is a problem in your area with teen pregnancy, and made sure that thier daughter wasn't gonna be one of those teens that ruin there life getting pregnant, so without you knowing they put a higher standard of living in your mind about ssex.
they kept you pure. now in the next couple of years you will see how much more your cousins are gonna struggle living thier lives while you are having fun cuz you are not tided down like they are.
Hey pretty lady you should be happy that you don't have any kids yet.So that mean that you could go have fun party go to the movie with friends and also do Alto of other stuff.Pretty lady you should be happy right now you don't have any worry so be happy before it to late.You should be prove of yourself bein a virgin it's hard work to be pure.
There is nothing wrong with being different and while you are out enjoying your life they are at home with there kids and probably relationships that wont last much longer. So have fun go to school explorer the world and don't worry about what anyone thinks of you or says. Be you and no one else.
I think they are jealous cause you have your life and they don't.
You know what? Life is mostly an evil cycle. A woman gets pregnant at a young age, and her daughter also gets pregnant at a young age and HER daughter..... it just goes on.
Don't feel left out. If you think what they have done wasn't the smartest thing they could have done for themselves then DONT DO IT TOO!
People dont become smart or rich over night. A parent should go without to make their child's life BETTER. You don't go buy name brand shoes; instead you buy cheap stuff so you can afford to get your kids a great education. Better education, more wealth.
And I don't mean the purpose is to make tons of cash. But the more education you have, the more opportunities you have! The more prepared you are for all of the crazy things life throws at you.
You should put yourself in a better situation before you have children.
You aren't weird. They are.
Love your family. But recognize their flaws. Not to criticize them... but to learn from their mistakes.

How do I apply ';myself'; in a world full of stupid teenagers?
It's not easy being myself. So please, somebody tell me how to make it easier... Anyway, I'm a teenager too.How do I apply ';myself'; in a world full of stupid teenagers?
It's always hard when you're a teen trying to figure out and express who you are in a world of ';cookie cutter cliques';
Honestly, sometimes it's even hard when you're an adult! My advice is to just continue what you are doing and trust the voice inside of yourself. The world does exist beyond high school and just realize that all of that ';teenage stuff'; doesn't matter in the long run. As hard as it is to externally be yourself, trust the voice within (if that makes sense). It's normally right! ;)
Adolescense is a tough stage but you will get through it. You'll also learn more about yourself each year and it will help you find confidence in trusting who you are inside. Keep the faith!
I hope I helped in some way.... Things will be ok!How do I apply ';myself'; in a world full of stupid teenagers?
what? how do you apply yourself, work hard and ignore them, thats what i do
Just do it!
Be you.
Jump right into it, and don't look back.
You'll respect yourself a lot more for it. And it'll make you realize how stupid and mindless a lot of other teens really are.
Trust me; it gets easier once you're used to being you.blushed

Are the people who answer the ';Am I pretty questions'; mainly teenagers?
Is it? Do you think any adults actually come in there and answer those questions?Are the people who answer the ';Am I pretty questions'; mainly teenagers?
no, there are also older people who post those questions. its mainly their insecurity or boredom.
those who give harsh answers are probably teenagers, as well, lol.Are the people who answer the ';Am I pretty questions'; mainly teenagers?
the people who ASK are teenagers
the people who ANSWER are a mix of both
usually you can tell it's an adult when they are like ';sweety, you will grow into a beautiful young lady, for now focus on school.';
lol
I don't really know.
Yeah I agree
Usually lonely people of the same age group as the poster.
yeah but they are the ones that ask them too
Lots are teens, some are lonely adults (no offense to anyone.)
umm... maybe the pervy old men. i don't think the beauty editor of Elle is going to come up and look.
Yeah, they're pretty much all teens .
I'm not sure. Maybe. I can't imagine that sorta question catching an adults eye though.
I'm fifteen and I answer them because they're an easy 2 points =D and also I like giving compliments...
no its only insecure teenagers
It depends what the persons age is. Some adults might and those are the ones who are critical, very drawn out. But for the most part i think their teens. i don't think adults go on answers and answer those kind of questions.
:P
