In the modern era were agricultural labour is no longer accepted (except by harcore maoists who ramble on about bourgeois society every day without realising that 'bourgeois' merely means somone who does not want a life expectancy lower than 25 and does not want half of their kids to die of starvation and disease), people have began to accept technology and the mechanized economy so that they can progress. After world war 2 several cultural changes stemming from the US took place in which teenagers in full time education began to create a new culture based on their hightenned emotional status.
Tis culture was based around 'getting laid', being mean to nerds and of course music which appeals to teenagers. In the 60s another social change occurred in the USA whereby the war in Vietnam caused social unrest, this coupled with contraceptives and superior music to the previous decade caused teenage culture to become more deviant than ever.

teen - one who is longing for attention and to be "cool". getting drunk, high, or laid any day of the week is a must. they hang out at the mall, movie theater, and any other place that other teens can be found. when not at these teen gathering zones they are at home watching MTV and chatting to buddies VIA AOL. if they are not at thier home they are at a "teen party" doing all of the above. their relationships last 2-3 weeks and their sexual expeditions are far from confidential. 95% of america's young population are, have been, or are destined to become teens.

Someone between the ages 13 and 19.
3 reasons (but not all) why it's good to be a teen:
1. You're treated almost like royalty considering what your parents have to go through ("the talk," which isn't really needed since most teens know that by then, putting up with all the "phases," being guilted into giving money, etc.)
2. You usually meet your main group of friends in this time of life (the people that you consider your best friends, and hang out with a lot)
3. Too old for Pedobear
3 reasons (but not all) why it's bad to be a teen:
1. You're more vulnerable to peer pressure, which may result in addictions and more
2. Right around now is the time that labels begin to be given to you (maybe even earlier)
3. Now, or earlier, you may have to say goodbye to a few friends that are going to different schools

Before adult, after child.
At eighteen and nineteen, even if there's the word TEEN in the number, you're an adult, not teen.
Look at the definiton of adult, 18+.
It wouldn't make sense to be both an adult and teen.
Also, "adult" movies are always 18+.
You'll often hear "A TWENTY year old TEEN got caught in an accident..." in the news, but they just want to sound clever. (it actually fails, because no one looks clever by calling a twenty year old adult "teen")
