The Older I get the Less I Can Stand Teenagers!

I work with teenagers on a daily basis. Mostly 9-12 graders but on occasion younger. However, the ones I work with are athletes. And to be honest, these kids, when I see them, are exactly the same as when I grew up and the same kids I've seen for the past 11 years in my profession. Now, on the other hand, I have had a few run ins with some non-athletes and it affirms my decision to not go into teaching. I seriously would have had trouble not losing my temper with some.
