Living with the enemy
this true? We talked to two parents with teenage children to find out.
Marilyn Scott
Yes, sometimes it is really difficult living with teenagers. But it isn't only their age, it's albanthe
type of people they are. My two sons are completely different. Tom's easier to live with than
Harry. Harry's a typical moody fifteen-year-old. He's a lot noisier and more aggressive than
Tom, and he isn't as considerate. So he's much harder to live with. But Harry's got his good side
too. He is very bright and his exam results are always better than Tom's.
Tom's two years older than Harry, so he's more mature and less stubborn than his brother. He is
also a bit more patient and can be very helpful when he wants to be. But he's got bigger
problems at school. He is as intelligent as Harry, but he is much lazier and his exam results are
always worse than his brother's. Harry wants to be a pilot when he leaves school, but Tom
doesn't know what he wants to do.
In some ways I'm a bit more worried about Harry because he is not as happy as Tom. But I also
worry about Tom because he has not got any plans for his future. Yes, life is hard living with
teenagers, but I'll miss them when they leave home.
