Based on what I've observed from young muffakas around me, it's way more stressful now than it was in the past.

Combine a bad economy with the normal fukkery kids deal with like fitting in, establishing their identity, planning out some-kind of future, school, peer pressure, social media, exploring their sexuality, whatever the f#ck is going on in their household (problems), questioning your beliefs, parental expectations, finding a job, dealing with everyday bullsh!t and possibly living in a fukked up community

things can be :snoop: :damn: :mindblown: :win: :shaq: :to: :what: :sadcam: status all in one

it's some sh!t they still call adolescence

Its slightly more stressful now if you ain't up to the trends, but that crack era was no joke. Back then, you had to deal with that "acting white" shyt, you had to deal with the nicca that had mad $$$ from selling crazy drugs that were profitable while you had none:sad: , the lost niccas that emulate the thugs, the random fights that niccas want to test you on for no reason, the stuck up girls that only wanted to be with one type of dude. Shyt was too hard back then.

I feel you breh. I know older dudes I used to work with that lived in that shyt and literally relocated in the early to mid 90s just to get the f#ck away from that past life and start fresh somewhere else. I'm a skeptical dude and hate mufakkas who tell :duck:, so when I used 2 question their stories dudes would be on some sh!t like "aye :stopitslime: I swear to god on my life wtf I'm telling you is the truth". These dudes scandalous tales of the 80's are :mindblown:

:whew: that's why I'm proud that I was born in 86 :laff:. Wouldn't want to be a teenager in the 80's or 2010+ sh!t is :scusthov: to me. Those twenty years between 1990 and 2010 got my head right for a "normal" life. I dodged a lot of fukkery too.

Yeah, but being a teen of this era would have made me spoiled and lazy. I could only imagine if I had a HD phone when I was 16 :ohmy: . Looking up on naked chicks on twitter, seeing hoes get nasty on WSHH, and watching movies on it? I wouldn't get shyt done.

Being a teen of the 80s would have traumatized me too. Middle of a bunch of people I knew turning to crack addicts and the black love movements in the 70's being destroyed would have made me into a psycho. There are people that I know that never recovered mentally on what happened int he streets back then.

We kinda escaped the blunt force of the storm by growing up in the 90s/ early 00s. In a way, we the last generation on the history of the earth that grew up without high speed internet and high tech cell phones. That's amazing.

something makes me think it must be really fukked up to be a teenager today. they're oversexed like a mouthafukka. I think this pornified culture we live in and all the social networking and technology really rotted their brains away

this chick, the 'teen boom-boom doll' was 12 when she shot this :mindblown:

shyt man, i'd never wanna be a kid today. its probably easier to fukk than ever but its not like these hot little bytches are fukking with dudes their own age, they probably all have college boyfriends and shyt, in a hurry to grow up so fast..:snoop:


What made you look up this video, though?
