Question

I have difficulty in relating to my teenage goup, Why?

Answer 1

if you are having difficulty relating to your group, then maybe you should be with some people that you can relate to. its not your problem, its the fact that they arent like you, most likely. dont worry, take it easy, and just be yourself. all of the people who are genuine will see that, and they will become friends with you because they like who you are.

Answer 2

Maybe because you are not listening to their words maybe you just here their voices. Let them speak, hear what they ar saying, then speak to them, with them and not at them.  Explain to them that this is what you want to try to do and see what happens. It Works.

Answer 3

u r different

(that is good)

Answer 4

Try to be sympathetic and relate yourself to their situations and imagine you are in it too. Give how you would react and go off of their reactions.

Answer 5

Gifted children (and gifted adults, for that matter) often have difficulties relating to people in their chronological age group.  This is usually something that will end up lasting a lifetime.  

Try becoming friends with people based on interests, not age.  Join a meetup or group that has to do with something you enjoy.  

You should also explore the idea that you may have gifted talents and needs that cannot be related to others as this is often the case.

Answer 6

you may have different interests.

Answer 7

Some people mature at a faster rate that others and some do not mature as fast as others, you most likely do not have the same interest as your peers and perhaps are mor intellectual than they are. Take some extended education studies and there you will meet people whom have the same interests as you do.

Answer 8

perhaps you should try opening up with them, but if you think that the things they're doing aren't right or aren't your thing, then try to find a group of friends that have more things in common with you. the last thing you would want is to be stuck in a situation that you're pressured into.

Answer 9

well, it depends how old you are, sort of. It doesnt actually matter, i am a teenager and have trouble explaining this to my mum. life is changing incredibely quick and even if you are in your 20's, teenage life is completely different now. you have to be open minded and accept what teenagers are telling you, also actually listen to them and talk to then like they are people, my mum seems to have this thing where she says 'im young and idealistic' but this is one of the worst things you can say to teenagers, we hate it. we dont want the responsibility of adults but we still want to be talked to and acted towards like we are not four years old. they key is to listen and react without shouting, demeaning, ignoring or trying to twist or change words. another way to understand us is to do what we do, like find out what music they like and listen to it, same with TV, find out what websites they look at and look at them. also make sure you let them be there own person, dont try and form their opinions for them or stop them doing what they want unless it is against the rules, dont keep them on a leash, trust them.

are you a teenager?

Answer 12

Different interests. Need more details though.

Answer 13

Maybe you are too mature for them? Find older friends.
