I'm not a teenager and I'm sure some other people reading this aren't either I wouldn't care what my age was anyway, it is me, in general so you're 12? No, that's me who's twelve. Blue is 11, I'm pretty sure. For your topic in general: Most people have your best interests at heart, and if their intention stays pure, it's not really a bad thing, even if it ends up hurting you, if their purely and wholeheartedly had your best intentions as their intentions, I find nothing wrong with that. For every screw up they make, there are a million other things that they will have been right about. I'm not sure 'who' you are talking about, but that can be applied to your peers and parents and siblings alike. All that you need to do is ask yourself, "Do these people really care about me?" and you have your answer of whether you should listen to them when they tell you what you should and shouldn't do. Just my two cents on the matter.
