Parents

I remember when I was a kid and I had to watch my older brother fight with my parents all the time. I didn't understand why they fought so much. All everyone used to say was its because he is a teenager. Looking back now on my former 8 year old self I remember thinking I'd never do that. Of course to me back then my parents were the greatest thing in the world. Being a teen now, I fight with my parents. Not as much as my brother but there are fights. I cant explain why they happen so often. The same things we fight about now happened when I was younger but now there an issue. I think that when your a teenager your constantly trying to change, your trying to find yourself. One minute you wanna be a dress down, girls who like sneakers and hoodies. Then you see a girl on the street dressed in dresses and high heels. You try to change yourself to be like them. Teens are influenced by so much and parents just cant keep up. In the movies you often hear teens saying that parents don't understated but in my opinion I think its teens who sometimes don't understand their parents. We constantly think they are trying to ruin our lives..but they aren't. They love us, they don't no that Nike is very in as well as booty shorts. They just don't want there daughters being UN-modest. They don't know that teens can be trusted with responsibility sometimes. They don't want you to get hurt or have to much on your plate. Its not just about them understanding us..we need to understand them.
