In the first of the new series Teens, a group of friends let Channel 4 have access to every tweet and text they send in a bid to show what being a teenager is really like in the age of social media and smartphones.

1. Being a teenager these days is hard.

2. Jess is awesome. She campaigns for feminism and gives food to the homeless. 

3. How are there people that believe fighting for gender equality is a phase?

4. Do teenagers really drink Capri Suns at parties? 

5. Six hours is in fact not a lot of sleep. 

6. Were teenagers watching teens?

7. Bullies are awful. 

8. But this is a great comeback.

 9. Thank god we’re not teenagers any more.
