11 Ridiculous Stereotypes About Teens That Need To Go Away
The olds just don't get it.

1. "You're all addicted to social media." This is only half true. Yes, we grew up with social media so we use it often (OK all. the. time), but it doesn't mean it's all we ever do.

2. "You have no idea what ~real music~ is." Um, sorry but Taylor Swift is life, and her music is ah-mazing.

3. "When I was your age, we actually had to work hard. Teens these days are all lazy." Look at all the uber successful teens, like Bethany Mota, Malala, and Mo'ne Davis, who are doing far more impressive things than most adults, and see how hard they work. Teens today are building HUGE businesses, breaking sports records, and winning Nobel Peace prizes, but you're right, that doesn't require hard work at all.

4. "All you do is take selfies all day." Really?

5. "You kids these days are always up to no good." This one is just rude.

6. "You're just too young to understand anything about life." (...)

7. "Why are all teens obsessed with Justin Bieber and One Direction?" First of all, not every teen is automatically a Directioner. There are a ton of other talented celebs out there, like Taylor Swift.

8. "You wouldn't last a day without your phones." Freak out maybe, but we can totes live for a day without a phone. (It just will be really tough, obvs.)

10. "Teens can't even write anymore. What is LOL, ROTFL, TMI, TBH, SMH?!" Um, laugh out loud, rolling on the floor laughing, too much information, to be honest, and shake my head. It's not like we're using them in our school papers or college essays - it's to text or tweet, because it's just faster. Who doesn't want to save time? Sheesh!

11. "Teens dress so inappropriately these days!" Sorry, poodle skirts when out of style in 1960 or whatever! Anyway, they were considered rebellious back in the day, too (yeah, we know our history).
