Which part of Spain is the best for teenagers to go to?

Why do teenagers cause so much drama and complain? Why don't they care about education? Are they just spoiled?

  • Is there something in horoscopes that explains this? Is there some sort of generation placement? Most teenagers nowadays cause a lot of drama, and don't really care about being well educated. It seems like all their parents are rich. The ones' whose parents aren't too rich don't cause as much drama, but sometimes complain a lot about having to save up for that "cute bag that costs $200" or for that "video-game". Okay, I know everyone complains, but why are they complaining about such small things? And why do they complain when their parents take away their stuff; their parents are paying for it! And the other fact is, they're not even TRYING to get jobs to save up for their videogames and cute bags/clothes/whatever, all they do is nag their parents about it -.- A lot of teenagers think of college as "party time" and "time to get drunk and do crazy sh!t". Their parents will be paying for their 2.0 GPA while a lot of teens can waste time and skip class. Why do some people "look down" on community colleges? Most community colleges have adults that go there, and those adults pay for their own education by working, and they are just saving money by going to CC instead of a state university for the first two years, because maybe they didn't have money right out of high school to pay for college. I'm not trying to be mean to teenagers, I have plenty of teenager friends, but sometimes I just laugh because I don't get them, and sometimes I just be sarcastic. It really annoys me when those teens whose parents are willing to pay for their education complain about little things like not being able to buy a $200 bag or videogame or whatever useless. Also, it annoys me how teenagers want to get those expensive CARS, like for $5000 or more. They nag their parents about wanting to get their own car. But for what? If they have a job that they need to get to, and their parents have a job, and they need separate cars, then sure, why not? If their parents can afford an expensive car, then sure, go right ahead, if it will be useful. But if all you need these $5000+ car for is for driving yourself to your high school and showing off in front of all your friends, then wtf? You don't need it unless your parents are really that rich, but if they were, you wouldn't need to be complaining to them about getting a car, because they'd just get it for you. Or also, if they have their little high school classes, and they complain that they have two tests coming up and an essay to write, and they complain about not having enough time. Um, yeah, drop those videogames and do your homework. Some teens are pretty busy, so I understand them if they have extracurricular activities and/or jobs and/or family to help, but if they choose videogames over homework, um stop complaining, it's your choice in the first place! Sometimes I just don't get those teens. I'm a teenager myself, I am 16 years old, I have plenty of friends, but... I had my first job at 15 and I had to work 25 hours per week which is over the legal limit of my state's law as to how much a 15 year old can work (they can work up to 18 hours per week) and I agreed to get paid less than minimum wage, because there was no other employer that would hire me, and this way I would earn more than working less than 18 hours per week. You know why I got that job? To start college at 15. You know why I started college at 15? To become a doctor. I am completing pre-requisites for medical school right now, enrolled full-time in my community community college, and am paying for my classes by working. It can get tough, but I don't have a choice if I want to become a doctor. Also, when I transfer to my state university, it will be twice more expensive, so I will probably need a full-time, graveyard shift while taking a full load of college classes in order to actually be able to afford them. Parents? They don't want to pay! Last term (winter), I was still finishing up with the high school classes while taking college classes at the same time. I had full-time high school, 3/4 time college (more than part-time, less than full-time), and a part-time job. Sleep? Well, I did have to pull some allnighters, and did need to live on energy drinks and coffee a lot during college exam times, but there was no other way, so I am not complaining. Right now I am just taking full-time college without that useless high school stuff, and I work. I have never driven a car before in my life. I have my permit, but parents don't let me drive since we only have one car, and if we break it, there will be no car. I take public transportation sometimes to get to college/work. I can't spend money on car because all (literally, all) of my money goes towards college classes. Everyone complains, but why do teens complain about little things such as clothes/videogames/bags? Jeaz.

    You know the first thing I'm gonna say right? NOT all teens are like this! I am a teen, and I am NOT like that. I am not old enough to get a job - granted, but if I was I am sure I would be out there tyring! As for a lot of teens (the ones who I know you are talking about) It's society and parental discipline. Parents don't teach their children to love work! They teach them, even by their attitudes, to get the easy way out of things. Society teaches the same thing - do easy things, have fun, etc - you know that right? (just watch tv) They want all of that junk because "Well Suzy's dad bought her that..." Or its popular.

If you wanted to analyze horoscopes it would be very in depth and very few would be able to do it. This is because what it really comes down to is being able to predict the situation they are raised in, and be able to determine things about their parents. It would be more useful to look at their parents horoscopes and see how they are going to treat their children. But I think this exercise is going to be far too difficult except for the most advanced astrologers, something people write entire books on just this one type of topic. Let me just explain one thing to you, using an example from my life. When I was a boy, my mom was severely depressed and didn't take care of me much in terms of giving me positive outlet for all that energy I had. At the same time she wasn't paying 100% attention to the music or tv I was watching. I started to watch and listen to gangster rap culture and almost instantly I became a fanatic of it and imitated all of it because it seemed so cool. I started to act like I could do whatever I want and would become violent when someone told me otherwise. This is how it happens. But children are malleable, they can change easily. I needed a positive male influence in my life and my uncle took me in and took away all that gangster stuff from me - my clothes, the music, and made me speak right or else. A lot was expected of me, and I was surrounded by positive nurturing people. That made all the difference and I never looked back to gangs. My life was far from perfect from there - but making me lose the gang mentality made me realize how much better life is without it. So there you go - it's really about the parents controlling their children and setting them on the right path. Teenagers are children.

Lack of discipline and ignorance. Its a dog eat world and its life. Its sad but this is how our society has become to....it sure pisses me off that SOME teens are prone into stupid things and not trying to better themselves. I live in the U.S. and my parents are from another country and my parents tell me if you want to be successful go after dreams and goals. I look up to them, but NEWSFLASH the American Dream does not exist anymore as it used to unless your a very competitive or matter fact lucky person. Its never been easy here on this earth but my parents said that back in the day like in the 80's & 90's in the U.S. was way much easier than today. Now a days you have to work even harder(to survive)...it has become harder because of the economy these days and all this new technology. Not everybody comes from the same educational system. I dont want to get all political but our government is pretty much ********** up our society for some real good reason they dont want us to know about. They are brain washing the younger generation into believing that life is about lolly pops and rainbows when in fact its NOT! and the sad part about this is that we as a whole generation is falling through the cracks...People need to wake up from all this media crap that influences people to do stupid things...we are not robots! we need to open our eyes and think for ourselves! and this problem is not only here in the U.S. its all over the world and its getting worst.
