This interpretation is from ""The Dream Interpretation Dictionary: Symbols, Signs, and Meanings" and is provided by J.M. DeBord aka "RadOwl". He is the author of several acclaimed books about dreaming, the host of The Dreams That Shape Us podcast, and is a moderator of r/Dreams, one of the largest dream sharing communities on the internet. The first consideration for the symbolic use of a teenager-character in a dream is that it is related to qualities and perceptions of teenagers, such as that they’re rebellious, impulsive, rowdy, mischievous, moody, and immature. Teenagers can also be daring, optimistic, and free-thinking. Those associations have myriad ways to be used in dream stories. For example, you dream about a teenager disobeying her mother, symbolizing a situation at work where you rebel against the direction of a supervisor. Or you dream about fighting with a teenager after an incident the day before when a bad attitude took you over and made you surly. The teenager represents your attitude. A teenager in a dream can symbolize someone pushy and disruptive no matter how old the person is. The symbolism is based on how he or she acts. A teenager can symbolize the courage to go in a new direction or start fresh. See: Heroes As an adult it’s easy to forget what you were like as a teenager, especially the idealism you felt. As a teenager you have ideas about the person you want to be as an adult and the ways you are going to live your life and even change the world. Then you turn around years later and realize the world changed you, and the idealism you espoused ran up against the wall of reality. Dreams can remind you of what you used to believe by putting you into a story among groups of teenagers. It can be hard to admit to yourself that you are disappointed in your inability to achieve what you once thought you could. Your dreams won’t let you forget—maybe it’s not too late. Groups of teenagers can symbolize the roots of your sociability, how you act in groups, the persona you adopt, the roots of anxieties and fears, and how you think people react to you. See: Anxiety, Groups Take the idea further and a teenager in a dream can symbolize idealism versus reality. Teenagers, generally, think they can do anything. It’s a great mindset, and as adults we need that can-do attitude, but you learn what your limits and constraints are. The new life that begins at puberty—no longer a child, not yet an adult—continues as long as you deal with the same issues and questions, no matter how old you are. For example, for the rest of your life, fitting in with people is likely to be a theme, and when it is, your dreams can show you among teenagers as a way of pointing toward the source of your present thoughts, feelings, perceptions, and patterns. The same idea applies to many areas and aspects of life: dating, sex, work and study habits, attitudes, addictions. No matter what age you are, your dreams will take you back to when things began and even show you as that age. Of course, if you are an adult and deal with teenagers, you are likely to dream about them. And if you are a teenager, then teenagers are your peer group and you will dream about them. A common perception is that teenagers think they know it all and don’t want some doesn’t-get-it adult telling them what’s up. This perception of teenagers can be used by dreams to symbolize situations where someone doesn’t listen, or thinks he knows it all. And it cuts both ways. Sometimes teens are right to tune out adults who try to tell them the facts of life. To better understand the dreams of teenagers, see: Archetypes, Hero.
