Declaration of Juvenile Exactitude

When in the course of human events it becomes necessary for the adults of the current world to re-think the American teenager. Adults today stereo type all teenagers under the assumption that they are deficient, ignorant, moronic, niave, and most of all; troublesome. While some of this maybe true to some teenager personalites, not all of us should have this sticker slapped on our forehead and be expected to be treated as the label follows. It has also come to my concern that the current adults of this world should take responsiblility for what they have done and are doing to our young population.

Adults today have a lot

of control, and are the fault of many teenager actions. Teens are pushed around by money, politics, and big business. In which are all controlled by adults and will be for future generations. For example, in the community "No Loitering" signs are placed everywhere, these signs may as well be labeled "Anti-Teen Zone". Having no where else to go, this forces teenagers into going to such places as the mall, food restuarants, and other places of minimal interest that involve using money. When the young are unreluctantly spending money in these areas, this causes teenagers to be forced into getting jobs. Jobs that lead into making more money which is just spent back into the local malls nd stores. Which wouldn't be so harsh if the jobs didn't spit on us as we were worthless. So by putting up these signs, we are herded just like cattle to where we are fed and made into a profit, teens are the pinion of the economy with no voice or pedestal stand up upon.

Having a computer with the internet has given me a lot

of opportunity

to talk to other people throughout the world and country about current events and issues through websites, forums, and other means of online communication. Whenever engaging in an online debate or opinion about a topic, a teenager can make quite an argument. Even if you make a good standing point, they may ask of your age. If your are considered a teenager, then your standing points maybe discarded in the fact that you are young. Therefore you do not know what your talking about. This completley baffles me when knowing that some of the most malleable minded people I know are teenagers, where as most adults are stubborn in their views. The difference between ages and mindsets makes it very hard for the young and mature generation to come to a conclusion about many problems or issues.

When taking both of these concerns together I have
