Teenagers; they are misunderstood in so many ways. Everyone thinks they are so obbsessed with sex or drugs. Being the medias fault, some have fallen to this sterotype. Basically, we are toddlers again. Toddlers are always trying to discover that world in new ways, because they dont know anything about it. Teenagers are trying to discover the world too, but with every single stress imaginable on thier shoulders. Stresses like: friends, what they look like, crushes, parents, grades, and their normal routine.
people who suffer the most ageisum. most people dislike them. others dont understand them being a teenager is the hardest part of your when confused of who you are and what you wanna do with your life. which is made worse by ageist older people who think all of them are sex obssesd, drug dealing pot heads. Which i find very harsh
two teenagers are walking
adult one- look at those good for nothing kids adult two- lets cross the road before they tryto sell us drugs
Shopkeepers shift their eyes to them when they enter a shop, because of the ageist attitude the world has towards them. Icy glares all round. And it doesnt matter if last week these very teenagers walking did a ten mile barefoot walk for amnesty international, or helped out volunteering at a literature festival, or performed at a cancer research fundraiser (which they did)
they are teenagers, and therefore scum,
i blame "the times" for the prejudice, and "the sun" for the problems of the world.
Shopkeeper 1: Hey, look at those teenagers, they are obviously here to rob, steal and plunder our goods"
Shopkeeper 2: I know...look at the scary blood drive flyers theyre handing out, and their t-shirts saying "GIVE BLOOD.GIVE LIFE
Shopkeeper 1: they probably stole them, too.
