I don't know about what other teenagers think, but I know my parents like to guilt trip me into becoming their slave after their evil job is complete.
Let's say, for example, it's Saturday, the day where all teenagers should be sleeping in peacefully and waking up only when noon has arrived.

But we all know that that's not true. Every Friday, when school ends, I dread the next day—wait no—I dread the next morning—the Saturday morning.

Every Saturday morning at 7:30am, my parents wake up. My dad just has to turn up the volume of the T.V because you know, he's going to be forty in a few years, which means he's getting old. So in conclusion, he has to turn up the volume.

Now tell me, when my mother starts playing—yes, playing because that's what it sounds like—with the pots and pans at an ungodly hour, is it just a coincidence?

Or are my parents both plotting against me?

If that isn't enough, when they take a nap during the day, you can't—you just can't—be loud when you are doing crap.
You could be talking on the phone on the other side of the house and you have to whisper.1104Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9c9THG162e
You could be typing on the computer, playing outside, heck, you could be peeing and you have to be careful of how loud you pee.1104Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqMYSPtbDyy

You're not even allowed to walk, you have to tiptoe. And if you think you've gotten away from their paranormal hearing by going outside or even closing the door, then you are wrong, my friend, WRONG. You can never get away. You have to face the evilness behind their sweet facade.

But the worst has yet to come. When they wake up, I'm so focused on being quiet that I don't realize how annoyed they would be.

They'd be so angry—just like those animated cartoon characters, where they're fuming with smoke coming out of their ears—only because I didn't do the dishes or vacuum the floor. Well I'm sorry, I didn't want to WAKE YOU UP!

But parents are parents and they gotta do what parents do or they wouldn't be parents.

The piece above was written when I was 16. Since I'm an adult now, I can wholeheartedly say that I was quite the character back then. Wow.
