I'm 15 for a moment... Caught in between 10 and 20...

I'm a good kid. Proud to be. Really. I have flaws, tons of them. I make mistakes, tons of them. But I have [b]VALUES[/b] and a [b]CONSCIENCE[/b]. But if I walk into any store in this city, I will be clossly under the watch of all employees. Why? Because I'm a teenager. Because I am stuck in this awful age group. I know some awesome people my age, kids who are really making a difference, sticking to their principles, and making the right choices. But unfortunately, we are lumped in the same categorey with the few idiots who find shoplifting, vandalism, drugs, and whatnot entertaining. In all honesty, those who don't O.D. or end up in jail, will forever be in our age group, but for some reason, at this age, they suck all the trust in our generation out of the minds of average adults. And really, how can u blame them? Adults dont want their property destroyed or things stolen. At student council meetings, Freedom's Answer conferences, Honors night, adults have to utmost respect for the kids who haven't screwed up, but walk into a local mall or restaurant and all adults think you must be up to no good. It really sucks that us "good kids" have to prove our innocence everywhere we go. It's as if within our age group, you are guilty until proven innocent. In my own school we now have police officers present to limit violence and drug activity and whatever else. In all honesty, why mind their prescence if you have nothing to hide? It actually made the environment safer. But still I can't shake the feeling that everywhere I go I am a suspect, not because I have done anything wrong but simply because of my age. I guess the only solution is to keep proving my innocence, to all my fellow "good kids" keep up ... well being good. And soon enough, we'll be out of this age group :?

Who really cares? If someone doesn't trust u it doesn't make u untrustworthy. He can think and say and spread all the bad news he want the only way he can change you is if you start to believe him or care what he thinks.

Ummm yeah, okay. I was told it doesnt matter what people think of you, and i believe you also agree with that... so why dont you STICK by your VALUES, eh? Sorry, i really dont mean to sound forward or rude, but along with all the stuff you said, i also hate hypocrites.

Well like I just told u on the phone, I DO really care about what adults think of me, but at the same time, I would never go along with what my peers are doing if I dont believe in it, so in a sense if could have sounded hypocritically, but I think u know what a mean now
