Society
These days, society is ugly. When you’re
walking through the halls at school and someone bumps into you they don’t
apologize, they cuss at you and call you every single bad word in the
dictionary. Why do people do that? Society is crazy. No one respects each other
because they think they’re better than everyone else. You walk around the
streets and people are looking you up and down already talking shit and judging
you before they even meet you. Teenage girls talk shit about each other because
they feel insecure. Teenage boys and girls do drugs thinking it’s cool when in
reality it’s not. They’re messing up their present and their future.
Today’s generation seems lost when it comes
to valuing respect. They have lost respect for themselves and each other.
Teenagers don’t respect their elders. Parents don't trust their teenage kid
because they’re always lying to them.
They only go to school to hang out with their friends. They don’t pay
attention in class and talk back to their teachers. I’m disappointed in today’s
generation and society. But you know,
who wouldn’t be disappointed. “It doesn’t matter what
everyone else thinks it's YOU who matters not anyone else. If you fail at least
you know, you wont spend your life regretting your decision because you were to
afraid” (Alliea). I agree with this quote because it speaks the truth. It’s
your life and you shouldn’t care about what anyone else says.
I didn’t find any quotes
that didn’t agree with me because it seems that a lot of people agree with the
fact that our society and generation is messed up. “Compared to when I was growing up, I think that in some ways my
daughter’s generation is more unaware of what’s going on the world” (Hellen
Minev). I agree with this because it seems like most teenagers don’t know
what’s going on around the world because they only care about themselves.
