Are teens getting to grown these days?

I was a teenager from 1992-1999.  Teens have a lot of things that I didn't have like cell phones, mp3 players, and of course easy access to the internet (this obviously refers to my early teenage years).  Teenagers these days have access to so much more information that teens of earlier years didn't have.  In my opinions teens are learning things earlier than in previous years because of the knowledge that is available at their fingertips.

I am, but it is beginning to seem like there are more under 18 year olds lately.

Teenagers think they know everything thus they can be told nothing. By the time a teenager reaches the age of enlightenment they begin to reconcile their current condition with their past. Its called growing up. You have turned the corner and you will soon be moving forward again. Good luck.

Puberty is the answer, no it's not uncommon you grown until you are 26, your grow spurt hit at 17, it's perfectly normal.

Some might say it is the transition from childhood to full on adulthood. Others might say 18 is the transition.

It really is getting crazier. I look back at my life as a teen and I look back at others that were there with me and our lives were so much easier. I talk to people that are from my generation and we just cannot believe the way kids dress these days and the way they talk to adults and the crap that they are able to get away with . I believe that the problem is that in most homes both parents have to work in order to make a decent living and the kids do not have their parents with them to control them and some parents think that they are doing their children a favor by spoiling them rotten. \n\nI look at the crap that they are showing on television and the crap movies that are coming out at the theaters. I hardly watch television because of it and I hardly go to the movies because there aren't many good movies to enjoy. \n\nGranted, there are few that I am looking forward to seeing, but for the most part it's all about violence and all about sex and all about things that any good parent would not want their child doing. It's just nuts \n\nI have a slight hunch it isn't going to get any better. Hang on....we are in for one he** of a ride. I look at it this way you go with the flow or get off at the next stop.

Female adolescents today have music and television to contend with.  They try to portray what they see and hear.  I think they grow more assertive each year.

if you're in your teens or early 20s, there are dietary supplements that claim they can help you grow. My son has been taking http://www.heightmax.com/index.htm... for a couple months and he has grown after being 5' 5" for well over a year. Whether or not he would have started growing again at this point in time (he's about to turn 15) no one can say; but it's mostly vitamins and he's had no side effects, so we'll keep using it.

I am in my 30's and I've been wondering the same thing.  It's not just that these girls are overweight, they're developing faster.  I didn't have all that figure at that age!!  Actually, I probably didn't noticibly go through puberty until I was about 28. People still think I'm in college :(  \n\nAnyways, today's teenaged girls are just way to big and way too grown.  They eat too much junk, don't excercise at all, and they dress like hoochies.

No.  You are finished growing.  Deal with who you are.

I am so glad i am not a teenager today. I think our celebrity, money obsessed, vain society of these times are putting ideas in the heads of youths that unless they are cookie cutter they are worth nothing. Even as adults, we have to really look into ourselves and make sure we know who we are or we can be torn apart at the seems. Teens nowadays face so much oposition it's insane. I wish more parents would take a more active role and really stress the importance of individuality in their children. Being cool may seem the way to go, but it completely changes after high school or college. Pretty much it all comes from peer pressure though, not just fromyour freinds and peers at school, but our complete scoiety. It's very sad

umm you are probably just starting to grow up more, we mature at different rates and you are starting to expect more

Yes they should. Everyone says that they're just kids, and legally they are but kids now days act a lot older than they really are. and teenagers, though going through major growth and dealing with hormones, can think for themselves and should know right from wrong.

They can, you start to look more mature.  But that has to do with aging.
