Temper Tantrums

I remember a scene from a movie or TV show in which a parent is making fun of his teenage daughter who, when upset, screams, stomps up the stairs, slams her bedroom door and then turns her stereo on really loud. It was funny as being completely typical of a teenage girl (and I have to admit that I engaged in such behavior numerous times). I wouldn't have thought such behavior would be typical of my boss, who is a supposed professional the age of my mother. I have such a headache.
