Read this small newspaper clipping and then write a blog post about it. What are your thoughts? How does it make you feel? Do you agree? Disagree? Explain yourself.
Teenagers are stuck in a place where they are told and expected to act like adults but do not have the same rights and cannot do the same thing as adults. In my opinion, teenagers are still under the roof of their parents so they are still supposed to be taken care of'; but at the same time learn how to be responsible and develop good work ethic by doing well in school. They are not adults yet so they should not be totally expected to act like adults but should be taught to act like one. I disagree with the backbone and wishbone statement because teenagers are supposed to be wishing and dreaming; It is what makes a successful person later in life. If teenagers do not have wishes and dreams they will not be successful as they move into college and out of college. They should be allowed to cry, dream, learn good work ethic, learn to help people, and to have fun. Adults need to be more lenient with teenagers and let them grow up and experience life.
