I know what you mean, DE - teenage (junior high, specifically) were the worst years of my life. I got a LOT of attention for a physical feature that was beyond my control (I was top-heavy), my parents did not understand me in the least, and I had zero self-esteem. You could not pay me to relive those years.

The good news is that it got much better and life got easier, the older I got. So Miss A -- you have good times to look forward to!
