Tween

Tween is an age group overlapping preteens, namely between 9-14. Tween can be a derogatory term when it refers to youths who blindly follow Hollywood teenage stars, listen to exclusively pop music, and accept any fashion trend set for them. They are also considered easy to market to by corporate firms. Tweens often think they are in the phase of seeking themselves, but it is questionable if they are doing it just because everybody in the same age seems to be doing it, too.
