What it's like being a teenager.
Being a teenager is super hard, especially in high school. You have to try to fit in. Girls call you sluts and bully you. I go through that with my best friend. My parents seem like they are strict comparing them to my friends parents. I know they do the things they do because they love me, but sometimes I would love for them to let loose a little bit. Yes school is fun but it can also be horrible. Some of the days I'm happy, smiling walking around the hallways in my classes. Then the other times, I'm sad and I don't wanna be here. I do not have a job, but I would love to get one. I would like to make money by myself and not have to ask my parents or save up birthday and Christmas money. I get plenty of sleep at night. I go to bed at 10 and with pleasing wake up at 6:30. I have as many friends as I need. I have girl friends and guy friends. They're all so amazing and there for me when I need them. It may seem like we have it easy. But we really don't. Having to please or parents with good grades, please our friends. It's hard. With getting good grades and pleasing my parents, I try so hard in school but they don't believe me. I do my work and I try hard and focus in class, but sometimes they don't think I'm working hard enough. With pleasing my friends, I want do the things they like even if I don't, but sometimes I can't, so I just walk away and do my own thing. In high school, you here that you get pressured to dondrugs and drink alcohol but I haven't been so I don't know what people are talking about. Some people may be pressured, but I never have. Being a teenager is hard as you can tell, I do but don't wanna grow up. It's great being young, but I wanna get out of high school!

Thanks for the honesty Kat. Sounds like you are already hard at work on the bravery piece required to survive these years. I always thought my parents were WAAAY more strict than my friends, and maybe they were, but every year you grow older you have a chance to work to understand them and their choices for you. Then you'll have plenty of years of making your own mistakes as an adult. :) raising a teen might be harder than being a teen at times. Keep up the work.
