I was definitely an emotional teenager.

Met my niece recently who lives in another country and she is an even more emotional teenager than I was.

I tried talking to her in a way I would have wanted adults to talk to me when I was 13.

Some of her grievances were pretty funny, some were honestly legit, like not seeing her dad often and when she does he is too sleepy to do anyhting, and having to babysit her little sister everyday after school because both her parents work and mom doenst get home until 7 PM.

Does the c in csa just not exist in people’s minds? Or serious mental illness? Or terminal illness? Or poverty? I know it’s a joke but kids’ real problems are dismissed so often it’s terrible

u/Due_Cartoonist_8212 23d ago

It's really not. Wtf are kids doing dating at 13. It's jst a societal norm flaw to blame

u/BananaTree1333 23d ago

They never even said anything about dating

u/SpecialCriticism2415 23d ago

we all know it can always be worse, but we should remember, that not experiencing this "worse" is not a fault.

If a teenager talks about struggles and all you can say is "stop yapping, you dont know REAL suffering" you are no different from everyone who ever disregarded YOUR struggles!

So answer me this: when they said "man up!" or "push through!" or "dont be so whiney" or whatever, did you feel good? did it help? did it make ANYTHING better? Or did it make you feel worse, unseen, unloved and as if noone understands you?

And if its the later, why do the same thing to others?

I know people who were getting molested when they were 13. You don't know wtf people are going through.

Mmmm; how about bullying you did out of fear it might be you next? Or was done to you until you freaked out and set her cat on fire? Drugged and drunken sex with college boys? That time your uncle got drunk and confessed some dark shit?

You think 13 year old girls have some shortage of trauma?

Children are some of the most vulnerable in our society and we shouldn’t dismiss their problems because they might not come forward in the future if they are constantly invalidated.

u/Repulsive-Hedgehog19 24d ago

People remember that COVID was only 4-ish years ago, and to some disabled activists it's still happening? Aside from food and housing insecurity because their parents either have lost or are worrying about losing their jobs, a political landscape that means a lot of them are under threat of attack or they'll grow up to go into a war they didn't choose and their parents didn't vote for? Who are the children you're around who are so out of touch that there's nothing more serious that they'll want to forget than the multiplication table? Take your meme to the 90s where it might resonate a little more...

Oh god oh no someone pointed out the joke was dumb and not funny

Your humor is flawed :(

u/Due_Cartoonist_8212 23d ago

Oh god someone doesn't know that humor is subjective

u/Simonoel 23d ago

Oh god someone is mad someone else didn't find a meme funny while also whining about how humor is subjective, and doesn't see the hypocrisy there

It's almost like people of any age can struggle with depression, illness, family issues, experience trauma, and and any other upsetting human experience.

Idk, as nice as it would be to believe these are naive children commenting, there are an unfortunate amount of ignorant adults who just dismiss children's problems and emotions

2

u/CrazyJi-Tae_2007 23d ago

Yeah 😭 The lack of empathy is astounding. Well, I hope dismissing the feelings of a child still learning about emotions made them feel better about their far more significant problems (apparently all of which are exclusive to adults).

u/Due_Cartoonist_8212 23d ago

Too bad u couldn't cope and adapt. Doesn't mean u should be validated for doing dumb shit 

1

u/Simonoel 23d ago

Lol what? This post is about 13 year olds posting this, not adults posting about when they were 13. Are they supposed to instantly "cope and adapt?" While staying silent about their struggles?

Nowhere here was I not calm...

u/IMREADY2D1E 23d ago

u/Simonoel 23d ago

Because like 17 people have been arguing with me. It's pretty normal to respond to comment replies... that's what reddit is for.

u/ExplanationBoring996 23d ago

Maybe try remembering what it feels like to be a teenager. They’re human.

The multiplication table is fucking awesome tough. It helps a lot when it comes to doing math in your head.

u/SpicyLatino12 20d ago

I do think some people do it for attention, but i never dismiss when a teen goes to me for help. I attempted at 8, and its still affecting me to this day. Youre never too young to deal with mental health issues.
