Teenage girls are total dicks

[Codswallop20]

They really are. Selfish hormone driven cock wombles.

I think they should all be forced to live on an island and only be allowed to return when they are sane.

AIBU??

I've been there (with bells on) - they do come back.

Stay strong ✊🏻

I was horrendous until I was 19. My poor bloody Mum.

DD is 13 now and I have a feeling payback is starting.

I was horrendous until I was 32 (ish)

My 17 year old dd is great!

God I wish you had all been my parents when I was apparently the nicest teenage girl ever. I got screamed at and door slamming when I said I didn't want to apply to Oxbridge...

Dd12 is just horrible atm. Monosyllabic, cannot b arsed to communicate with me other than if she wants something. Doesn't ever want a hug, yet she used to be so loving

The worst is how she looks at me so disdainfully, makes me so sad

I was the same with my mum though (and how bad I feel about that now)

I have four teenagers - 3 are boys, 1 is a girl.

At 9-10 DD was the worst. A hormonal nightmare.

Now she’s 16 she’s a delight.

Her brothers, on the other hand, are total fucking dumbasses who appear to be competing weekly for a Darwin Award

I only have sons but teach teenagers. I’m always jealous off the parents of girls because the girls are so pleasant, focused and chatty. Puberty seems to turn boys into mumbling slobs. Mind you, DS1, aged 15, came home with a “politest boy of the year “ award from school last summer and DH and my mouths nearly hit the floor in shock. He can be rather hard work at home. And that’s being pleasant about it.

Not even read whatever you have wrote and don't need to. I AGREE

Of, not off

I'll swap my teen boys for your teen girl(s) OP. Maybe we'll come to appreciate them better, maybe not.

I can’t get mine out of her bloody room!

I was really nice as a teenager! (My mum has admitted this - I even heard her telling a shop assistant this last year when chatting about teenagers 🤦‍♀️) I was quiet, studious, tidy around the house, quite independent.

My sister was AWFUL. Screaming rages, kicking in doors, loud metal music, pot smoking and clubbing, school refusing, festering bedroom mess, piercings and shaved head, the works.

Sister seems to have spawned a DD who is a carbon copy of me, the lucky fucker. My DD (8) is like a carbon copy of my sister….

I’m dreading the teenage years. FML 😩

I was a hideous monster during my teenage years, drinking, drug taking, staying out all night, arguing about anything & everything.
Was dreading DDs teens - by some miracle she’s turned out to be the exact opposite of me, I’m not claiming it’s down to me - just thanking my lucky stars

My 10 year old has promised me she’s never going to be mean to me, so not an issue for me…

I completely agree. But how is it possible to feel this way AND the same time absolutely love them more than anything with every piece of your heart and soul - because that’s how I feel?!

My nightmare toddler is now a fab teenager. Whereas perfect toddler is much more defiant and generally very frustrating to deal with.

(I should say DD hasn’t taken up boys, pot and metal just yet, but I can tell already that these are going to appeal 🤣)

@MrsFoxyplease was just going to say the same!! 🙈 Sorry Mum and Dad!!

@A8mint

Maybe yours are. Mine are not

There's always one who has to have the smug little dig.

Mind you, DS1, aged 15, came home with a “politest boy of the year “ award from school last summer and DH and my mouths nearly hit the floor in shock. He can be rather hard work at home. And that’s being pleasant about it.

Oh this made me laugh! My ds 13 is utterly vile at home but by some miracle seems to function and behave like a reasonable human being at school...

I’m always jealous off the parents of girls because the girls are so pleasant, focused and chatty.

When I see DD talking with other adults, she is so polite and pleasant. Teachers say she is a delight, they'd be so shocked if they could see her at home some days.

But how is it possible to feel this way AND the same time absolutely love them more than anything with every piece of your heart and soul - because that’s how I feel?!

God, this.

I teach in a girls’ secondary school and think teenage girls are just about the best people in the whole word. The girls I work with are so kind, hardworking, socially engaged and generous. I admit I might feel differently if I had to live with one of them though.

My 15 year old is a sweetheart. But she was bloody hard work as a baby and toddler, so it probably evens out in the end.
