Raising teenagers very challenging: Will Smith

Los Angeles: Hollywood star Will Smith thinks raising teenagers is tough and says it takes “everything” to bring them up.

The “Independence Day” actor, who has kids Jaden, 17, and Willow, 15, with wife Jada Pinkett Smith, and a 23-year-old son, Trey, from a previous marriage, said it is difficult to cope with children when they reach adolescence, reported People magazine.

“Teenagers should be (considered] an affliction, you know. Like, when people come up to you, like, ‘Hey Will, how you doing?’ – ‘Awww man I got teenagers.’ It takes everything you have to raise teenagers,” Smith said.
