Why was it we could say no and today teenagers see no reason what so ever to say no, not only that, they expect it to happen at that age just because thats the way it is. Am I the only one who sees a problem with this ?

IMO, exploring the reasons for a lack of self-control in a teenager is a separate issue from the topic of this thread.
