Invention of the teenager

We all remember our teenage years — either fondly, or with a sharp grimace of embarrassment at all the (ahem) somewhat silly things we might have done… or the occasional chaos we caused our parents.

So this Sunday, we shall investigate the rise of…

THE TEENAGER.

(Everybody runs screaming )

But in defence of teenagers, their reputation isn’t entirely on them…

It’s kind of society’s fault.

From high school to magazines to rock ’n’ roll, let’s find out where the “teenager” actually came from — and how they became a culture all of their own.
