      Yeah they do that if they have the same tendency towards excessiveness. Some of that is learned. Too bad they don't usually rebel against excessiveness.

      • What percentage of kids do much of a teenage rebellion at all? If we ignore watching TV all day and getting seriously sloshed every now and then, by far most teens I've known haven't.
        Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

          any answer is subjective, ie what constitutes rebellion, is it relative to the behavior of their peers, etc.

          The reason I think rebellion relates to this thread is the mix of the passion / restriction by the parent(s).
          Stomping out copyright infringes for the purpose of saving a three year old the exposure (as was listed to be the nobles oblige) sounds quite passionate. My guess is, to a ten or twelve year old that approach would cause extreme curiosity for what's being censured, and fodder for a teenager seeking independence. No different from the stereotypical 'preachers kid' breaking as many commandments as possible.

          • Would you spontaneously say that most kids do a teenage rebellion?

            • I would say that everyone has some degree of need for non-comfomity. But that is the consequence of forty years of watching people be people, not a spontanious observation.
