Couldn't agree more with Osric. ^ It's so hard to write from a teenager's perspective. I've had such characters in the past, and I always felt like the character was acting way too mature for his age. And so I'd compensate for it and inwardly facepalm for acting like a brat. -snicker-
Opposite gender is nothing in comparison. For the longest time, I couldn't wrap my head around playing a female character in an MMO - despite the fact that I wrote from female characters' perspectives in stories and the like. I've said so before on these very forums! But, now that I have bitten the bullet and done so, I think most people who have interacted with my female character don't realize she's being played by a guy at all, much less by me. #KeepinUguessin
