It's kind of funny how every year we get older and realize there were so many things that we didn't need to stress about so much in our past. My father once told me, "If it's not going to matter in 5 years, it doesn't really matter at all," and now I'm beginning to understand what he meant. Sometimes it can feel like older adults don't understand what younger adults are going through, but usually, they can. They literally went through it themselves and came out the other end okay it seems.
Of course, some things change, and we face different issues from our parents, but some pieces of advice, like many of the ones mentioned in this Reddit thread, will always be applicable.
Reddit user u/NotViperX asked the adults of Reddit to share something every teenager needs to know. It seems that many adults were eager to share what they now know since there are over 20k responses. A general theme, of these comments, is that we should not stress over the little things, and I think a lot of us need to be reminded of that daily,
Okay, I don't know about you, but I needed to hear this. No is a full sentence. You don't need to explain yourself to anyone, or come up with a ridiculous excuse, just say no and move on. I assume this is harder for younger people because we want to take every opportunity that comes our way, but not all of them are worth our time, and we should respect our time.
