You know you’ve got a teenager in the house when…..

Happy Christmas and Merry New Year.

Oh hang on, that is so last week.

Now, some of you may be wondering if you have a teenager in residence, or simply a very tall and articulate toddler. Next time you are unsure whether you have a teenager in residence or not, please consult our easy guide.

You know you’ve got a teenager in the house when…

• There are no crisps
• All your good nail varnishes have gone
• Ditto your hairspray and your second best eye liner
• And your money
• There are adult-sized people in the house with child faces. They are very polite, but they have eaten all the crisps.
• Someone is singing the theme from Titanic in the shower
• And has been doing so for at least half an hour
• Someone who loves you is telling you that they hate you
• You hear the words Do I have to?, I’m not your slave and Have you tried turning it off and then turning it back on again? several times a day
  
• Your car has a full booking system even though you have not officially qualified as a taxi driver
• Despite sitting in one place on their laptop all the time their bedroom will be will very messy.
• And is never tidied. Ever
• And even when they claim to have tidied their room it looks exactly the same.
• They ring the doorbell EVERY DAY even though they have their own key.
• They pop off at a moments notice.
• Everything you say has to be repeated twice. No one was listening either time.
• The chocolate has a habit of disappearing. It’ll be in the same place as the crisps.
