It is based on cultural identities, which are manufactured by the entertainmemnt industry, and not on class interests and class solidarity. Working-class teens rebel against their working class parents because they want em-tee-vee, not because they think their parents sucked up to the capitalist system. They rebel because they want to consume more than their more pragmatic (ah, that discreet effect on aging on human consciousness) parents would want them to. So what's wrong with the teenage rebellion is that it is about consumption rather than challenging capitalism. Regards, Wojtek Sokolowski
