Teenager Daughter Owner's Manual

Instructions for all those with teenage daughters or daughters who
think they are teenagers or who will eventually be teenagers.

Teenager Owner's Manual

Congratulations!
You are now the proud new owner of a
teenage daughter.



Please read this manual carefully, as it describes
the maintenance of your new daughter, and answers
important questions about your warranty
(which does NOT include the right to return the product to
the factory for a full refund.)

 

IF YOU FEEL YOU HAVE RECEIVED YOUR
TEENAGER IN ERROR:

To determine whether you were supposed to receive a teenage girl,
please examine your new daughter carefully.



Does she:

(a) look very similar to your original daughter,
only with more makeup and less clothing?

(b) refuse to acknowledge your existence on the
planet Earth (except when requesting money)?

© Sleep in a burrow of dirty laundry?


If any of these are true, you have received the correct item.
Nice try, though.



BREAK-IN PERIOD:

When you first receive your teenage daughter, you will initially
experience a high level of discomfort.

Gradually, this discomfort will subside, and you will merely
feel traumatized.

This is the "Break-In Period," during which you are becoming
accustomed to certain behaviors thatvwill cause you concern,
anxiety, and stress.

Once you have adapted to these behaviors your teenager
will start acting even worse.



ACTIVATION:

To activate your teenage daughter, simply place her in the
vicinity of a telephone or Instant Messenger.

No further programming is required.



SHUTDOWN:

Several hours after activation, you may desire to shut down
your teenage daughter.

There is no way to do this.



CLEANING YOUR TEENAGE DAUGHTER:



Having a teenage daughter means learning the difference
between the words "clean" and "neat."

Teenage daughters are very clean, because they take frequent
showers that last more than an hour.

They will scrub themselves with expensive, fragrant soaps which
you must purchase for them because like I'm sure I'm going to
use like the same kind of soap my  mom and dad use.

When they have completely drained the hot-water tank, they will
step out and wrap themselves in every towel in the bathroom,
which they will subsequently strew throughout the house.

If you ask them to pick up the towels, you are confusing "clean"
with "neat."

Teenagers are very busy and do not have  time to be neat.
They expect others to pick up after them. These others are called
"parents."



FEEDING YOUR TEENAGE DAUGHTER:

Your teenage daughter requires regular meals, which must be
purchased for her at restaurants because she detests everything
you eat because it is like so disgusting.

She does not want you to accompany her to these restaurants,
because some people might see you and like I'm sure I want my
friends to see me eating dinner with my parents.

Either order take-out food or just give her the money,
preferably both.

If you order pizza, never answer the doorbell because the delivery boy
might see you and oh my God he is so hot.

Yes, your daughter's idea of an attractive man is the pizza boy.


CLOTHING YOUR TEENAGE DAUGHTER:


Retailers make millions of dollars a year selling stylish and
frankly sensible clothing which will look adorable on your daughter.

If you enjoy shopping, you will love the vast selections which are
available to you. Unfortunately, your teenage daughter wants to
dress like a lap dancer.

You may be able to coerce her into putting on a cute outfit before
leaving the house, but by the time she walks in the 'schoolhouse'
door, she will be wearing something entirely different.



OTHER MAINTENANCE:


Teenage daughters require one of two levels of maintenance:
"High," and "Ultra High."

Your daughter is "Ultra High."

This means that whatever you do won't be enough and whatever
you try won't work.



WARRANTY:


This product is not without defect because she has your genes, for
heaven's sake. If you think this is not fair, talk to your parents, who
think it is hilarious.

Your teenage daughter will remain a teenager for as long as it takes
for her to become a woman, which in her opinion has already
happened and as far as you are concerned never really will.

If you are dissatisfied with your teenage daughter,
well, what did you expect?

In any event, your warranty does not give you your little girl
back under any circumstances, except that deep down she's
actually still there -
you just have to look for her.
