How high is your tolerance level for teenagers? Could you get along with having one (or more) in your presence on a regular basis?

As long as they didn't act like assholes. Maybe the question should be, would they tolerate being in my presence?

I"m pretty tolerant, I've always had younger family members, and when they were in high school, I was always able to tolerate them and their friends.

I tolerate teens much better than whiny toddlers. My daughter is 16 and usually has a steady stream of friends in and out of the house (and my kitchen cabinets!).
But like Alan said--as long as they're not acting like assholes. <----That's when they become the reason why hamsters eat their young!

I've always enjoyed being around teens. Did OK when my daughter went thru her teen years and travelled a lot with my youngest grandson when he was 14-16.
Of course that was a family dynamic where I had some control. Sometimes you meet teen strangers and they can be good kids or assholes.

I am tolerant to a point. Its hard to accept a lot of teenagers because they act like assholes most of the time. There are those that don't fit this bill but they are far in between.

As long as they curb that attitude, I'm cool with them.

I'm alright with them individually....but I can't take a group of them. 2 is my cutoff.
