The reason could be that the teenager is used to their parents choosing what they are going to be, that they just want to ignore the parents and do what they want to do and “find” themselves. The teenager has decided that they have seen the life their parents have and has not yet decided to choose that life and is rebellious to it because they want to experience other lives.
