    "Everything is still possible."

    [and maybe a more descriptive subject line like "What's the best part of being a teenager?" would garner more responses.

    No bills, no responsibilities, getting your drivers license, only having to work PT, alot of people I know hated there teenage years but I say enjoy it while it last because soon enough you will be working full time paying your own bills, up late at night with sick kids or kids that dont want to go to bed

    How easy it is to make friends. When you get older, get married, have kids, etc, it gets really hard to make and interact with friends. Looking back, it was so much easier when you went to school together and could hang out so much and go do stuff, without life getting in the way.

    And you get to make all your mistakes at a time when you can fix them, or at least learn from them, without them screwing up the rest of your life and others that depend on you.

    You have so much energy, you heal so much faster, and you don't make old man noises when you wake up in the morning!

    Making mistakes.

    Being a teenager is all about messing up, but you learn so much about yourself through the process. Sometimes they hurt, sometimes they turn out to be the best things in your life. Either way, they help you grow as a person.

    Practicing being an adult, with your parents to catch you if you fall. Being an adult is way harder than most kids think. Having your parents there during the teen years is the "soft place for when you fall" is a blessing in disguise.
