ADOLESCENCE
**Nowadays our youngsters are acting as if adolescence is the last fling at life instead of the
introduction to it.
**Some philosopher said that adolescence is the best substitute ever invented for experience.
**Adolescence begins when children stop asking questions -- not because they don't want to learn,
but because they know all the answers.
**I can't make up my mind, does adolescence ruin cars or do cars ruin the younger generation.
**I think parents dread adolescence because they remember what they used to do during
this period.
**This is that wonderful time when girls stop making faces at boys and slip into making eyes.
**You can easily tell when a child enters adolescence -- they start asking questions that you CAN
answer but wish you didn't have to.
**Children are first aware they are entering the period when they find their parents become
more difficult.
**This is that confusing period where children are too young to give advice and too old to take any.
**This is a period of time-warping. Your kids age five years -- from 13 to 18 -- while you age
20 years.
**It is easy to recognize an adolescent boy -- it's the time when he goes from quoting his dad to
criticizing the old man.
**Finally, what really gets me mad is that this is the time my boy begins objecting to my wanting
my own way!
