Advantages and disadvantages of being a teenager.

Some people say, at the end of their life that it would be great to be young again. Sometimes, they think they could avoid their mistakes. Unfortunately at the beginning of our life, we are teenager and we can make many stupid things which we can regret in whole later life.

It is very difficult for me to say objectively about being teenager... because I am teenager. Simply I do not have any comparison. I can only suspect how it is to be mature and I also do not remember exactly how it is to be a very young child. Certainly being young has many advantages and disadvantages; I will try to mention some of them.

Youth is a time when you can decide about your future life. You can choose way for your life and it can be good or bad. You can prepare your life to live with loving wife and family or you can become unhappy person or even a criminal. Many people say that it is very good because you can decide yourself what way you want to choose, but I think that young people sometimes do not know what to choose and what is evil – that's why they often take drugs and abuse alcohol.

Teenagers have often very receptive brain, so they can learn faster and better than others; they need less time to acquire a knowledge. They can also work to develop and improve their's brain.

When you are young generally you live with parents so you do not have to carry about many things – you leave it them. You often get pocket money and you can buy something for yourself .

Many people think that being a teenager is some very good thing – you do not have to carry about most things and you can do with your life whatever you want, but it is not as nice as they think. Young people have to learn a lot – if they want to have a good job in their's future. They stay about 8 hours at the school and they must also learn a lot at home.

Mature people often want to have calm and organized life. They often have many stereotypes and they judge person by some predetermined rules. Young people are more often more tolerant to other nations and cultures.

As a teenager you can spend many time with your friends, you can improve your talents, skills and hobbies. You can spend whole day on doing something without thinking if a dinner is ready, have you already do launder and dishes – as a mature person.

All in all every person was, or will be a teenager and he will see what I is like. As I wrote it has many good and bad sides. It is very big responsibility to decide about your future life when you are teenager. I would like to do not regret something when I will be an old man.
