THE DREAM The following are short summaries of dream which all contain teenagers. I have tried best to isolate the symbolic meaning of teenagers in each dream.

A teenager fighting with her mom linked to the dreamer not wanting to take medication. She hated going to the doctors but knew that if she wanted to get better she would have to get some medication. The teenagers symbolised her wish to rebel and fight against doing the responsible thing.

A dream where the teenagers block off a road linked to the dreamer trying to live in a green way (after watching a news report the day before). However she was thinking that this was impossible for society as a whole because people would not follow the rules. The teenagers symbolised the feeling that people would rebel and simply not follow the rules that would be needed.

A dream where the dreamers boyfriend was playing the guitar loudly linked to the dreamer splitting up with her boyfriend because of his disruptive behaviour.

A dream where teenagers were behaving badly linked to the dreamer realising that he had been pushy. He had gone into a club which had its own rules and he was virtually telling them everything that they did was wrong. The teenagers symbolised his pushy disrespectful behaviour - he was wanting to take over.

A dream where a social worker was supporting a homeless teenager linked to the dreamer having to give up his job because of ill health. Just one week later his life was in so much chaos. The teenager in trouble symbolised the dreamers life being in chaos (teenagers often get in trouble and need support - they are still children).

A dream where the dreamer goes ballistic at some teenagers stealing her car linked to the dreamer going through a break up. The teenagers represented the chaos in her life and the bad emotions involved in a difficult break up.

A dream where the dreamer is in a room she had as a teenager linked to an awkward situation in real life. Her ex husband knew her current boyfriend as they were buddies at school. It was making life difficult.

A dream with several teenagers in (who were actually in her twenties) linked to the dreamer starting a new relationship. She had had several relationships over the previous four years and wanting a more permanent relationship - not a teenage fling.

A dream where the older people go to bed leaving the dreamer with the teenagers linked to something that happened the night before. The dreamer visited a friend and she was worried that she stayed a bit too long. She kept them up past their bedtime. The teenagers symbolised her staying up late.

A dream where the dreamer was on a skateboard linked to the dreamer being on holiday and feeling a real sense of freedom. He just wanted to cut loose and have fun.

A dream where the dreamer is acting like a teenager linked to the dreamer missing being young. She was jealous of the freedom that her teenage kids had.

A dream where I am ambushed by a group of teenagers linked to the dreamer trying to impress his girlfriends parents. This was proving impossible as they simply thought he was irresponsible.
