Do this! Do that! You are still a child, better listen to me fella.
Stop doing that! You are grown up already, better behave like one girl.
Phew!
Teenage phase can be summed up into two words: insecurities and being judged. It's the time of your life when adults don't let one decide whether they are children or grown ups.
Teenage years are the really precious phase of one's life where they explore their world, they understand themselves, deal with their sentiments and emotions.
This is the time when they need the emotional support from the ones they look up to. But most of the times all they recieve is a captious adult with their non acceptable statements that strengthens teenager's insecurities.
"Just look how skinny you are, eat something girl! Look how fat you are, control your diet! Use that Cream, use that foundation, wear that shirt, better start gym." Be "PERFECT".
STOP!
Just why can't we stop passing such statements, why can't we teach them that they are perfect the way they are. Why can't we just a chance to shape themselves the way they want, the way their body want.
Teenage depression's is one of the utmost prominent reason is toxic atmosphere.
You know, they were not wrong, when they said,
"Villians are the heors, that were not saved".
By being judging someone, you are just creating future youself who are going to be villian in someone else's life.
So!
Dear Adults,
STOP! using your words as sword. They hurts!
STOP! generalizing us.
STOP! forcing us to be in a boundary that is set by you.
Give some time to us.
Respect our privacy.
Let us fall, let us learn, let us grow.
"I wanna be me, let me grow as someone for whom I have been craving."
You have to understand, just because I m mismatched, doesn't mean I'm wrong, it's just I'm unique.
Thankyou,xx
