Teenager. What's the first word that pops in your mind?
Confused, angry, emo, vengeful, adrenaline-driven, spoilt brats? Not all of them but most of them may be true. We may seem immature, naive and totally driven by our hearts and not minds but we're just regular people. Trust me, we teenagers are not that difficult to understand. We're not acting rebellious all the time but misunderstood most of the time.

Having a strong opinion is not the same as being unreasonable.
Just because teens have been misunderstood a lot right from the beginning of time a lot is simply assumed about them. A single emotional outbreak or one moment of rage does not mean teenagers are solely driven by emotions. A single act does not define a person. Our opinions and ideas are classified under rants. We're simply not to be taken seriously by the world.
Our 'rants' may sound like just an angry teen complaining about life but if people could actually listen, not just hear, but listen to what we say and try to relate to it things would be a lot easier for both sides. Take teenagers seriously. We're not just a bunch of kids with crazy ideas but people who want to be heard.
What may sound like plain complaints are stories that together sum up the way a teenager sees the world. It's not always the hormones and emotions speaking. Rants are triggered by reasons. And when the reasons are strong enough they give rise to revolution.
