Around the 1950s, you can also find anecdotal evidence that cultural perceptions of teenagers as painfully adolescent were becoming more widely known, with complaints about the trials of parenting pubescent children. In 1955, for example, a woman called Mrs G wrote to Mary Brown, an agony aunt for the UK Daily Mirror newspaper, complaining about her son: "He"s cheeky and he"s sulky… why should a boy change like this?" she wrote. "He resents any questions. The best I get is a polite yes or no, the worst an angry look which clearly tells me to mind my own business."
