Complicated

Every young teenager is searching for who they are, this will lead to many, many mistakes. For me i believe in school you are taught a lesson and you do a test. However, in life you do a test and learn a lesson. If you are like me you either have to learn the hard way, or make a mistake multiple times before you actually learn from it. In all honesty it doesn't really matter what age you are, there is always room for you to learn something new.
Now, from speaking to a number of adults in their 40s i have found they have a very strong opinion of how teenagers behave today. The thing that they seem to focus on most is the love lives of young teens, they are very different to the way they used to be. Going back to when our parents were young, you were either going out with someone or you were single. However, in this day and age it's simply not like that it's a lot more complicated.
Nowadays, there is dating, seeing, single and having fun, friends with benefits and relationships. It's all so messed up and in more ways than one, heart breaking. Everyone, feels differently in so many ways, due to what they have been through, etc. If you look more closely, due to the many differences of all of these different labels it is clear why so many hearts are so easily broken. If you ask me our parents had it right, you should either be single or be in a relationship with someone.
Being an 18 year old girl, i have realised how different my opinion is to other people my age. I have been involved in every label i have mentioned above and believe me there would definitely be a lot less heartbreak if we learned from our parents. No matter how much we really don't want to admit it, our parents are always right in the end.
