Do you think Teenagers have life too easy?

I think it life as a teenager was way easier back in the day; everything is so complicated now it makes me wish life was actually as simple as it was years back. 😛

I am a teenager and I have to say yes. We have a lot of things that people that are older didn't have when they were teens and it was more complicated for them. Now we have social media, email, hoverboards, etc.

Social media/internet ruins a LOT for teenagers though. There are teens who aren't affected by it at all but there are some that get dragged into that fantasy world of "beauty" and become insecure about their own body/personality. There are so many other things as well but that was the first that popped into my head.

I personally am happy that social media/internet wasn't really that good when I was in my teen years (which isn't long ago really).

To be honest, I don't think it was "harder" 30 years ago for teenagers. They had less luxury but they were used to that so it wasn't a problem. I mean a hoverboard is cool and all but what's wrong with walking. 🙂
