Just because we are young, it does not mean we are worthless. I am 16. Legally i can leave home, get married, have sex and children. If i have a job, i pay tax and NI and despite the fact that i am an adult, i am still treated like a child. I know that this is how many people of my age feel. If you trusted us a bit more and let us off the leash, we may surprise you. So-called adults treat us either like we are stupid, invisible or rude little children but they are missing the point. We are adults too. And they should look at their own lives before pointing the finger at us. The stereo-typical view of teenagers, is divisive and discriminating. And unacceptable. Why should teengers be treated any differently to the rest of this world?
Comments
I have been away from England for a year and a half, I came back 5 Days ago and I went out yesterday, people avoided me and my friend. Cars would avoid us when we where on the sidewalk and he took his time on crossing roads and cars would slow stop and not beep and him even though he was holding them up, I was shocked. He told me how the country has changed and how many stabbings and rapes where going on in our area and how everyone was scared of everyone else. when I was walking to the stores people I walked past would tighten and clutch there bags and purses etc. The reason I think was because some teenagers do bad things then the steriotype continues on. It is our generations fault not the worlds fault. Thomas

SHOUT ABOUT BATTLEFRONT
Everyone loves a nice badge. Especially badgers, for whom they are the primary source of income. Those furry little craftsmen have knocked up a particularly natty Battlefront one which you can stick on Bebo, MySpace, Facebook or your own website to show your support.
Just copy and paste the code below into your website – just like embedding a YouTube player – and then anyone who clicks it will be sent to the Battlefront site, and your page will look at least ninety times as snazzy.
I totally agree with u georgia and think this is one of the better campaigns, i just think u need a better title coz not many ppl are gna click on it because it sounds quite stupid, unimportant and unexplanitary - it poorly reflects what is a very good campaign.
