Week 2: Myths about teenagers...

Oh boy, where do I start? There are a lot of myths about teenagers out there, but I think I'll start with one of the biggest ones. That would be the myth: "Teenagers are very irresponsible." Now I know we've all heard the stories about the troublemakers who get into fights, drop out of school, and just cause chaos in general. I want to start by saying that for at least 80% of teenagers, this couldn't be farther from the truth. Sure, I've seen some of my irresponsible peers, but for every one of them, there's at least a hundred more in the world that are the exact opposite. Most of us take school seriously and do everything we can to stay out of trouble. I'm not saying that I'm perfect either. I've had my fair share of irresponsible moments, like procrastinating and then forgetting to do yesterday's homework. So I will wrap this up by saying: "Myth busted!"
