Teenagers then and now

Karen Johnson is a bank manager. She’s 43, she’s married, she has a daughter and a son, and she lives in a small
town in the south of Scotland. But 25 years ago, she was an 18-year-old teenager. It was the 1980s, and she lived
in Manchester, England.
‘I hated being a teenager,’ says Karen. ‘Now, I look back, and I think, “Wow, what a fantastic time I had!” but
then it was terrible. I didn’t like my hair or my clothes. I thought my mum was great, but I didn’t think my dad
was great. He told me what to do all the time, but I never listened! I wanted to be cool, but I wasn’t. I didn’t have
a boyfriend, and my clothes were terrible. I wore short skirts and tight jeans and a lot of make-up. I listened to
New Romantic pop music – Spandau Ballet and Adam and the Ants were my favourites. At the weekends, I
always went out to clubs with my friends and didn’t come home until two or three o’clock in the morning.’
‘Today, a lot of people go to university when they finish school, but it was difficult when I was young. My friends
and I finished school at 18, and there weren’t any good jobs. I worked in a shop for two years. I was 20 when I
got a job in the bank, and I had to work hard. I’m the manager now, but it wasn’t easy to get to this position – I
went to night school and did some extra courses.’
Olivia Johnson is Karen’s daughter. She’s a student, and she’s 18 next week. She lives in Leith, a town near
Edinburgh, Scotland, with some friends. Her parents and her brother live in a house nearby.
‘I like being a teenager,’ says Olivia. ‘I have good friends and a really nice boyfriend. I don’t go out very often,
but I text my friends all the time or we chat online. On weekdays, I meet my friends in a café near my school, or
I watch films at my boyfriend’s house. Sometimes we go to a cinema on Saturday night. I usually wear
comfortable clothes –T-shirts and jeans, and I download a lot of music from the internet.’
‘I study German at school, but I’m going to study Chinese at university next year. I love languages, and I want
to work in different countries.’
