Who else disagrees with 'Teen years are the best years in your life'?

Mine were. They were brilliant years. We had a voice and made ourselves heard whether people wanted to listen or not. During my teenage years history was made and some of the best popular music and arts ever were created.

We made Woodstock 1969.

56,000 tickets sold and 500,000 plus people attended free of charge with another million en route to protest against an evil illegal slaughter called the American and allied involvement in the Vietnam War.

To protest against this !!!!

Today you live in a nanny state of fear phobia paranoia and appallingly incompetent public services. The ONLY value anyone has in every direction is money. And the results of that speak for themselves as you walk out into the street day or night. Because so many cheaply hired idiots are working in public services who dont know what to do or how to do it. They just resort to either rude angst or wielding a uniform or fancy painted police van in your face adorned with endless image recording equipment. These vehicles should not read caught on camera they should read caught sat on our fat backsides when we should be out walking around and policing the community effectively.

No one searched us randomly. No cctv's in our faces everywhere. And no one got blind collapsed drunk or stamped on peoples heads in the street. We only recorded what was worth recording such as the fantastic music and magical events. We were positive energetic and happy.

And that, I think, was the handle���that sense of inevitable victory over the forces of Old and Evil. Not in any mean or military sense we didn’t need that. Our energy would simply prevail.

There was no point in fighting — on our side or theirs. We had all the momentum; we were riding the crest of a high and beautiful wave. . . .

(Hunter S Thompson)

Your generation has become known as the lost one.

As for so called parents ?

Any lame idiot can get drunk listen to endless tv or noise pollution without lyrical code or a message. Anyone can just aimlessly conceive and pro create humans.

You need to group together en masse and totally outright protest at the way your are being treated. You need to do it NOW !

You need to fight hard for your rights and those of others.

My teenage years as everyones should be were the best of my life.

They took place during the best part of the whole century.

Yeah they called us hippies bums long hairs dropouts but we got our message out loud and clear and made a difference as well as making magic and joy !

And were proven capable of hard teamwork.

My inner teenager is still alive and well.

Still smoking good quality cannabis no matter who says its legal or not.

I say its OK so therefore it is and I will do it.

I dont respect todays so called authority at all because I simply do not suffer fools gladly.

I am my own authority.

I've done the miles and therefore I am qualified.

I would dread the thought of being a teenager today.

I strongly disagree. Those who say that their teen years were the best years of their lives apparently hate their lives as they grow.

Seriously, do you really think famous and rich people like Bill Gates, Robert Plant, Brad Paisley, Clint Eastwood, etc. think their teen years were their best? I'd be willing to bet that none of them would think so!

I agree too The best years of your life are different for everyone.

Im with you, Im in college n im having the time of my life. Better than Highschool and all that little nonsense drama-fueled bullshiit.

I love College.

i disagree i'm having the time of my life at this point if 18-24 isn't considered adult lol

Yuck it better not be, because I'm a teen now, anf if this is the best life gets, I might as well kill myself now...

=)
