Teens Essay, Research Paper


The teenager is a creature far different from that of any other. These


strange beings are classified into the species of the homo sapiens ranging


from thirteen to eighteen years of age. Through the years, it seems that a


teenager has grown more to be a separate class in itself rather than a


certain time period in life.


Although teenagers are really almost a separate sub- species of the


human race, none of them are really quite the same. The teenager may be


divided into three separate categories ranging from the radical, moderate,


and conservative. The “radical” teenager may be best described as one


going to all extremes to try and prove something that nobody else can


really understand. Punks, stoners, new- wavers, skaters, surfers, and


other similar people fall into this category. The “moderate” sub-species


of the teenager may best be described as the classic teenager, or really a


teenager who epitomizes most of the qualities of a “normal” teenager. This


category comprises the widest range of people and could definitely be sub-


divided within itself. This particular category of teenager is slightly


vague as it can range from teenagers such as “jocks” to “brains”. The last


of these categories, the “conservative” teenager describes the class of


teenagers who follow the rules and teachings of the adult world without a


complaint or rejection. One will most likely find a “conservative” teen in


the front of the classroom trying to get as close to the teacher’s desk as


possible. One will find that this person is usually quite timid and quiet


the majority of the time.


The description of any of these abstract creatures is quite difficult


because of the vast difference in each one’s features. These beings may


range from 3 feet in height up to around 7 feet. They can be either tall,


fat, thin, short, ugly, attractive, intelligent, slow, fast, responsible,


irresponsable or a variety of several more features humanly possible. The


>“radical” and “moderate” teenagers are usually quite unpredictable and can


usually never be trusted. The vast majority of teenagers begin to actually


think and reason for the first time in their life and begin to have


contrasting beliefs from what they have been taught by their elders for 13


to 18 years. Before hitting the teenage years, most every person accepted


just about everything taught by their parents as they had no reason not to


believe in their parents, and also knew no better. As these teens begin to


think, they find logic in new and different beliefs and find many old


beliefs obsolete. Teens could be a major advantage to the human race if it


were not for their tragic flaw in which they think that they have had so


much experience in life that they are ready to handle it all and take on


the world with their “vast knowledge of life”.


Although teens are far from perfect, they are still not treated to the


best of the older generation’s ability. The average teenager is “abused”


by their elders. Teens are forced to do miscellaneous odd jobs not


respectable to the human race. One may find a teenager doing such


degradable chores ranging from taking out the garbage, doing the dishes, to


sacking groceries at the local grocery store. Although for the most part


teenagers are mistreated, being a teenager has its definite advantages. For


in being a teenager, not much is mentally expected of you, for the elder


generation has accepted the fact of the difference between them and the


teen. As the elder generation was also forced to go through this demanding


time in life, they realize how “difficult” it is, thus a teenager can


practically get away with “murder”.


As the teenager can never fully be described because of their wide


variety of qualities both mentally and physically, many people struggle to


find out exactly why teenagers act as they do. As one may see, the


differences of the teenager are quite obvious and contrasting to that of


any other period in life.
