Persecution????

Did you realize that in a 16 yr old's world...getting in trouble for such things as fighting with your sister, getting bad grades and back-talking your parents is considered "persecution"??? Give me an F'ing break! I guess at dad's there is no persecution.....oh wait, b/c there are no siblings to fight with, there are no grades as of yet to contend with and the only adult in the house is him (and his 22 yr old????) girlfriend. Oh and that PS3 and getting to stay up as late as you want playing video games and watching TV all night...ok, I guess there is no persecution there. I am just at a loss. I can't win, so why try?
