Dear Ann: I'm a typical teenager and my parents arc typical parents. They keep telling us how hard it is to bring up children these days. (There arc three teens in our family). What I want to say is this: It's not only hard for them to raise US hard for us to be raised by THEM.

I realize my parents have lived longer and experience is a great but why don't they understand thai kids must have Iheir own experiences? We wanl lo try our own ideas. We don't want theirs all worked out and neatly packaged. I am different from my father. He is himself and I am me. I ani not a revolutionary, but I'd like to change some Ihings that he thinks are fine.

Every teen would like to sit down with his parents and tell them what he thinks and why. No yelling and arguing just open discussion. When I tried last week I was called "stupid, foolish, too young to know any- Ihing," so I won't try again. Maybe if my parents (and others who treat their n- agcrs like morons) see this letter they' will understand how it looks' from the other side' of the fence. Walled Out Dear W.O.: Thanks Tor "your side." It's a good one and I buy It.
