Were you more informed as a teen than you are now as an adult?

Or, more likely, when you look back at yourself as a teen do you cringe at what you believed?

I personally wasn't, but I turned 17 during the 2008 financial crisis, so that jump started getting engaged with things.

My sisters are way more aware of the world than I was at the time, for instance. But if you talk to some younger people, you'll find that things are different than even a decade ago for younger people.
