Why do t33ns need privacy?

You adults have many opinions on the way us teens live our lives, the decisions we make and why; I completely understand that you love us and are trying to protect us, but WE NEED PRIVACY!

In order for us teens to grow more independent and gain self-confidence, we require privacy to feel as if you trust us. The way that works is giving us time to deal with the way we are growing, and decide whether to be positive or negative about it. (Via, self confidence and independence)

Now I know that you adults have a different word on trust and that it is apparently “not a thing” in our teenage years, but you have to understand that throughout our life changes, we act out in ways you would not understand. Before you parents reminisce about how “you understand” and that “you’ve lived through the same experience as us”, you actually don’t understand because there IS a difference in the ways that parents before 2000’s and that us teens have grown up.

Us teens need a way to cope with the way our minds and bodies change. We need the privacy to deal with it; then we come, when we’re ready, to you parents if we need help.

Thank you.

In no way is my opinion directed at attacking parents and/or other teens; I’m just explaining my point of view
