> Your own personal experience can not be generalized to everyone around you. Generalization is one of major things that cause people to be so misinformed. Not all teens commit murder, larceny etc but guess what, there will always be some that do, you just seem to be focusing on it more now but it’s not like these acts weren’t committed more than 10 years ago.

completely true. I am not ignorant to the good deeds that young kids are also doing every day. far from it actually. Its just that its more and more prevalent now it seems.

Real talk here.

My class reunion is coming up. A bunch of us were just talking about how we cant think of anybody in my class got arrested when we were in school. I can think of only one girl that was pregnant. just two simple examples that came to mind.

My little sister is a Jr. in highchool now, going to the same school I did. She can list about 20 kids in her class that got arrested in the last year, 2 of her friends that come around my parents house are pregnant, and there are a bunch more examples of pregnant 15 and 16yr old girls in her school.

I dont make this shit up, i dont strive to get included in it, or to hunt it down for my own displeasure… i simply see it and am aware of how hard it might be when I have a kid and have to raise it… based on this trend I found.
