What are you on about?
I don't hate teenagers, I think they're victims of society! No-one gives a crap about them
When I was a kid it was pretty carefree compared to the pressures they're under today, we used to stay out all day long building camps, waking miles and miles away to friend's houses, walking back in the dark to get home, bunking off school was naughty but not a major issue.
Teenagers today are under constant pressure to have the latest designer clothes, mobile phones or they are outcast, the worst thing to me is the pressure to be able to comit crime and carry knives, if they can't do that, again they are outcast, whimps, geeks etc....
The things we were able to do, they cannot, they can't be free to roam as we did, there are paedophiles on the loose, it's criminal damage to walk across that pipe and tread the fence down over the years, you can't throw freshly cut grass at each other, it's dangerous, someone might get a stone in their eye you know! Don't play outside rough & tumbling about, you're causing a disturbance, breach of the peace and the neighbours are complaining about it, here have an ASBO, how dare you hang around in groups of 3 or more, how dare you play loudly outside
