pubescent

A 70-year-old grandfather is having a heart to heart talk with his 13 year-old grand-daughter. This teen does have a lot of tantrum. She's in an age which we call transition period from childhood to puberty. She complains a lot. She rebels a lot. She frowns a lot. Her face is always gloomy. She barely grins whether at home or outside. But only one line from the grandfather kicks her heart out whenever this young woman dislikes situations and her rebellious and pubescent character spurts out. The grandfather says to the grand-daughter, "Smile while you still have teeth, grand-daughter."
