Being a teenager is tough, no cap. Freedom? Yeah, that’s the vibe for teens, but what we chase changes over time. Balance is key: too much freedom? Nah. Too little? Same problem.

From the ‘rents POV, teenage years are a wild mix of cringe and glow-ups. More teen drama to manage. For teens, though, freedom is IT. They need it, they want it. Parents gotta figure out how and when to dish it out.

And about college life? Let’s not make “freedom” the snoozefest topic here. We’ve all got our own stories. Maybe yours is totally different from mine. Or not.

Real talk: what’s college if you’re not living your best FREE life as a student? You feel me?

What does “FREE” mean for college students?

1. I’m a social media legend! I need FREE data for non-stop Zoomers ’cause I’m the social media king and everyone’s in my squad.

2. Always scouting for gigs and events. I need FREE tickets with VIP seats. The closer to the stage, the better. \m/

3. Craving for junk food, mamak food, fast food? Free burgers + coffee (with sick latte art) > spending my allowance on basic set meals.

4. Bringing your car to campus. Outings with the squad are lit but FREE parking is essential. Lifetime FREE parking is even better.

5. Think free parking is enough? Nope! FREE gas to fill up my tank so I can cruise without worrying about getting broke!

6. iPhones? Samsung? Xiaomi? I need a FREE smartphone (actually smart, not a dumb one) with the latest apps. Plus FREE top-up vouchers! Thanks to Mom n Dad, or maybe My sugah dad or mom.
