Words to describe a young adult or teen who behaves recklessly and won't listen to advice from older people [closed]

I'm looking for a word (formal, informal, or even slang) to describe a young person who behave recklessly, like to mess around and often get into trouble with people, don't listen to advice from older people, and has shallow thinking.

People in my country have a word which can be translated into "bullheaded kid" but I find it a bit weird so I want to find a proper word for it.


Troublemaker - someone who intentionally causes problems for other people, especially people who are in a position of power or authority:

He is a troublemaker with a rough and careless manner.

He is a troublemaker at times, but he mostly agrees that his sister is the weird one.

Source: the Cambridge Dictionary

A synonym for troublemaker is mischief-maker:

If you say that someone is a mischief-maker, you are criticizing them for saying or doing things which are intended to cause trouble between people (the Collins Dictionary):

The letter had come from an unknown mischief-maker.

The chief among his playmates, he became the mischief-maker of the place.

Depending on the context, "problem child" may also be used to describe any child (as well as an employee, sibling, or friend) that is constantly getting into trouble but you are somewhat obligated to care for or help:

You know, if you want people to stop treating you like a problem child, stop causing problems.

She's been a problem child since puberty.


Juvenile Delinquent

Even kids can run afoul of the law. Once this happens, and a child enters the criminal justice system, he or she may be deemed a “juvenile delinquent.” Juvenile delinquents are minors, usually defined as being between the ages of 10 and 18, who have committed some act that violates the law. These acts aren't called “crimes” as they would be for adults. Rather, crimes committed by minors are called “delinquent acts.”
