Short Essay
Brats will be wearing short skirts, over –revealing shirts, and too much makeup, making them look like glittery ghosts. Bratty teens are the ones who have boyfriends; they talk about boys and
and always need mirrors to check on their makeup every two seconds. Brats usually have the most friend problems because of their spirit of competition – who is prettiest, who can get the most boyfriends in one month, and who is the best cheerleader etc. Whether you are pretty enough to be ‘popular’ is the basic requirement to belong in this group. At a party the majorities of teens are brats because they are free, and give off the image that they don’t care what other people say about them or their actions.
Most of the ‘bratty’ teens have a two-faced personality. Chelsea, a good friend of mine from elementary school was my mom’s favorite. My mom would always say “Oh, Chelsea is so sweet!” When Chelsea and I got o junior high, I told my mom that she was one of the popular teens, -- rude to people who were not popular like her. ‘Chelsea!? No she could never say that!” was my mom’s response. Chelsea was two-faced – a teen with a split personality. At home they are rude – they never help out around the house and prefer to stay on instant Messenger or the phone, chatting endlessly. But thin their social group, they are known as the nicest person on earth. They are sweet, smart, and h helpful. The two-faced ‘Bratty’ teens offer two sides of the teenage spectrum. Therefore you never know who they really are!

Gothic teens or ‘Goths’ are commonly known, seem annoying to most parents. The appear self-willed, detached, and indifferent in their outlook. Mostly found among older teens, about 9th or 10th grade, the Goths dress in all black, which becomes a distinct part of their identity. Their skeleton necklaces, spiky bracelets and black fingernails can be uncomfortable to look at. Goths and A’s do not mix. Goths are the people who get C’s, do not pay attention in class, and the ones who do not show up in tutoring even when they should. Goths are the most passive group of teenagers. Their typical hobbies are just sitting around and listening to music, and talking about the new Good Charlotte CD, what happened on One Tree Hill the night before and other usual teenage topics. Goths only hang out with other Goths. They won’t even consider having friends outside their group. Goths never accept an invitation to a party unless it is within their group. They can sometimes try to recruit other teens into their carnival of ghosts, goblins and black!
No matter what their attitude, teenagers are sensitive and caring individuals, each one is unique in their own way! They face an enormous challenge. While confronting the overwhelming threat of peer pressure, teenagers still crave for their parents’ attention. Parents who appreciate, encourage and enlighten their teenager can hope to see a more adaptable teen with a positive attitude.
