I wish I was a teenager in the 1970s.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I remember being young in the 1960s... we had a great sense of the future, a great big hope. This is what is missing in the youth today. This being able to dream and to change the world.
It's so easy for 16-year-olds, including myself, to say, 'I just wish I were an adult.' But we can't wish our lives away. When we're adults, we'll say, 'I wish I were 16 again.'
I wish people didn't just think of me in the '60s. I'm not any era.
I remember the kind of teenager I was, the kind of teenager I wanted to be, and then the kind of teenagers that were all around me. Life is lived on such a big scale in those years - and such an embarrassing one as well.
I'm a child of the Sixties.
I don't really feel like I need to be a teenager ever again.
Teens in the '90s had the same basic desires as they do now.
I spent my whole childhood wishing I were older and now I'm spending my adulthood wishing I were younger.
I was a child of the '80s.
The 1970s, the decade of my teenage years, was a transitional period in American youth culture.
