Being a Teenager

I know it sounds melodramatic, but it’s true. I don’t hate my age, or all the pressure, or whatever cliche you want. I hate the fact we’re treated like children, but expected to behave like adults. I hate the fact that when it’s an adult’s word against a teenagers, the teenager is always wrong. I hate that we are supposed to respect our elders, when they don’t respect us. I feel like I’m mature, but everytime I express a view it’s looked down upon, simply because I’m young. I feel like I don’t have a voice!
