If you don't like it...REBEL!!!!

I think that all teens rebel in one way or another. It just goes unnoticed sometimes. The reasons that they rebel can be completely different, and so can the way that they rebel. I would say that the real larger reason that they rebel is because they feel like they shouldn't be controlled since they are "growing up". Teens feel that as they grow up they should have more control over their life. They might actually be getting more control but they will rebel anyways. The important part isn't how much control that they have it is that everyone knows how much control that they have. So they rebel to show everyone how much power they have. It's funny because many teenagers like the people who rebel, there is something about it that attracts them. In the case of adults though they just see it as obnoxious. It's almost like a status symbol in the youth of America. We've never really seen much of it here, but in larger cities I'll bet that it still happens all the time. I think it's just a part of growing up. It's a way of testing the waters you could say...find out exactly what you can do and what you can't.
