Relatable Millennial, Gen X, and Boomer Wisdom Bestowed Upon Teenagers Via Wholesome Reddit Thread

Back when we were kids, we wished desperately for the day to come when we would have no bedtime, no restriction on sweets, and could do whatever we wanted, whenever we wanted. In other words, we hated being told what to do. And yeah, adulting is pretty awesome. Whoever would trade these years to go back to high school is crazy. Those days were the absolute worst. Times have changed, and we're doing our own dishes. If we could go back in time and tell our younger selves something, what would that something be? The question can also be asked, 'What is something every teenager should know about "the real world"?'

Well, firstly, everything is ridiculously expensive, you're exhausted 98% of the time, and the remaining 2% is saved for birthdays, which happen until maybe the age of 35, by which time you don't want to celebrate those anymore, so you wipe them from the existence of your worn out brain. Below you'll find a hilariously wholesome Reddit thread with replies from Millennials, Gen X, and Boomers.

For more, here is a sassy clash of classical art memes to enjoy.
