I skipped the rebellious stage.

I skipped it and then I relapsed--my twenties were wild. I'm so glad I did it when I could--and that I survived it. There's still time!

 

Oh gosh! I was a TOTAL rebel! It's getting me kicked out of the house for it, but most of it was fun I do regret quite a bit of it though...
I think it's good you haven't gone through it. It can be quite damaging to many of your relationships...you stay golden, Ponyboy

 

Really, you skipped it, didnt think you could lol but mine are, well now and pretty fun im not that wild llike stealing cars and picking fights lol

 

I pretty much skipped the rebellious stage, too. Well, sorta. I'm the queen of passive aggressiveness among everyone who knows me. However, a rare instance of snark and my general passive aggressive tendencies pretty much sum up my rebellious phase.

 

Nope, I missed mine too. It's sort of there now instead, latent. But nothing I'd really put into action.

 

Eh. What constitutes a rebel phase.

 

I didn't think I was too rebellious except for looking at gay porn and getting toys shipped to our house when our parents were on vacation when I lived with them(my dad found the receipt, but it was general "straight toys"). I think when I come out to my parents, they will look at it is being the most rebellious thing I've done. I just have a feeling they won't get it.

 

The only really rebellious thing I did was tell my dad to "shut the f*** up" one time when I was like 14. He totally deserved it, but he kicked me out of the truck...
After that, I had no problem speaking my mind to him.
Haven't done any drinking or drugs though... I just have no desire, really.

 

Yeah, I skipped it too. So you're not the only one. Had a lot of problems at home with my mother being bipolar and having depression. I guess I figured our family had enough problems? (Everything is more or less fine now) I'm interested to know if there was a cause behind your lack of rebellion too, or if it was more of a random thing.

 

17 years old; never dated/kissed/had sex, the only member of my family who's never had a drug/alcohol problem (kiss my ass, Rush Limbaugh), homeschooled/sheltered lifestyle (although I still wouldn't have underage sex or do any kind of drug, no matter what my school situation is)...

Pretty rebellious in other ways, but when it comes to sex/drugs/violence, I'm the lesbian Mother Teresa.

 

This is me too, only my rebelling was concentrated from like age 19 to... not all that long ago actually. Kind of shocked I lived through it, and that I made it through relatively unscathed.

 

I don't know whether I've skipped it or if it's just coming on late, but I haven't caused any issues so far. I've never cussed at my parents (and I don't typically cuss in general), I still wear my DARE bracelet, and my idea of fun on prom night is playing tag in Walmart at 1 AM.

I'll have to see how I do during college this next year, though.

 

I'm not sure if I ever entered a rebellious phase, because I've never really given much thought to what my mother says or does, and I can't say that she has ever yielded much power or control over what I do, or if I entered a rebellious phase when I was 12 and it's still ongoing now. Even before then, I never really did as I was told, partly because I knew she rarely followed through with discipline - at worst, I'd get sent to my room and that was it, and that never bothered me.

Still, my relationship with her went south pretty quickly when I started high school, and since then I've pretty much done whatever I please, and her disapproval really means nothing to me at all. Now that I'm 18, she doesn't care as much - I'm legally an adult so have the freedom to go wherever I want and do whatever I want, and she has no legal authority over me whatsoever. I earn my own money and pay my own way, so she has no financial strings to pull either (not that she would be in a position to do that anyway).

Plus, I pay the rent on the place we live in, since she's currently unemployed, and isn't even looking for work right now (she is 'on sick' apparently), but I digress (any excuse to vent, I guess).

 

I would say that I've skipped it for the most part, as I've always had a really good relationship with my parents and I usually don't see any reason to not listen to whatever they tell me to do. Although, I have done some of the typical "rebellious teen stuff" (drink, smoked weed), but that's honestly a rare thing.

 

Watch out - you just might end up one of those fifty year old men going through half life crises and spending all their money on Ferraris and partying. :dry:

 

Hahahahah. I'm still waiting.

 

You poor thing. What do you have to live for? Me, I've always been a rebel.

 

I've yet to get to that stage too.
I'm 18 and haven't hit the rebellious stage, I think it's because I've got nobody to rebell with .
I have urges almost everyday to just go out and go wild for a night.
