lolz. I'll keep that in mind : P
One of my best friends at school love when I twist her hair around my fingers. It's weird.



ANYWAY, to reply to this. I sadly think that most people from this generation were victims of the socalled 'free raising'. We have a lot of examples in Denmark of teens who cannot figure things out when they're used to never being corrected, and suddenly their parents decide to 'care' about them.

What I've figured out is it's the way they were raised, the age, and just the person themselves. In most of America parents work such long days the kids are left alone to basically be raised by public TV and their friends, and with the movies and shows nowadays it often results in sec, violence, and drugs.

Also I'm a Junior in high school.

and... i guess xD
i think i read something of a study that some people are just naturally more temperamental than others despite their raising and other cultural influences >.>'''

i mean..... some people are to taught to 'control' themselves a wee better than others... but it doesn't change how easily flustered a person can get XD

Lol.Awww thats mean.*pokes hair*

Well the reason I asked is because people today usaly may be because of thier parents.You know the saying "The apple dosen't fall far from the tree".
Maybe its kinda like a acholic(being anger or whatever) having a kid and that kid being more susceptable of becoming one too.But that could be influnice too.
It may be because they inherited or influenced....Maybe both?....Im not sure.There are so many theorys that it hard to know >_<.

Maybe....Men have more testosteron.But women can get naturally violet too and I have seen some pretty violet women(espeacily when it comes thier emotions).But thats kinda uncertain.So im not so sure if I fully agree with that.

I mean, who doesn't like one aspect about art?

Well I guess you're not worried about the rudness of some people in your class or the teenagers, it is more that the attitude of this (who you described) person made you mad! You should relax, also you should differentiate between the attitude of teenagers as the attitude from different people! You should ignore people like those who you described. Also you shouldn't care about such meaningless things. It is ok if you say: 'Hey this was not okay' (If they recognize it and leave it it is ok, If not you shouldn't waste your time with it, because it will just stress you, the other and they will never understand it) and so on but you shouldn't stress your soul with something like this ; ) It's not healthy. And by the way it is ok to show respect towards other people also if you don't know them or don't like them, but you should differentiate between to be respectfully and to be an ass-kisser! ; )
Wish you a nice day!

I will be a freshman in a week, and i know some REALLY rude people. but seriously, there is no point in paying any attention to them. AT ALL. i feel bad for the teachers, but it was their decision to teach. so instead, just find the nice people in life, stick with them, and then when a rude person gets in trouble for doing what they do best, you and your friends can sit back and laugh at them.

What a coincidence! I was and still am dealing with some 15 year old girl who writes on a public site about all these guys including my sister's boyfriend at the time she has garage sex with calling her occupation "slut". Ugh, I feel disgusted just thinking about her.

To the two above : Pish-posh. I was spanked growing up only a couple times and that threw me into shape. One though I really did not deserve. >.>

There's a difference between spanking and abuse. If you're going to get a swat or few on the butt then you, child, have been spanked.
There's a huge difference between that and being beat.

I see people are scared, though. There was a 7 year old who took a car out, drove it around and the grandma said she'd spank him if she didn't have the threat of being thrown into jail.

I don't see the problem with spankings. If you wear pants, I doubt it'd hurt much. I mean, when I was younger, I had to hold my hands out and wait until my mom lashed out at them wth a leather belt. I never considered it abuse, and still don't

I agree.

I remember seeing some kid on my street who ran around with a metal bat chasing his sisters around with it up and down the street, even raised it up to an elderly woman and would scream some inappropriate songs for his age. He was never punished, yet he obeyed the rule of "don't cross the street". How old was he? 4?


It still smarts even with pants on. It doesn't qualify as much protection in my opinion.
Hm... now that I think about it, I've never been punished without pants.

Touchy nerve you are hitting on my friend ..

I tell what .. The observation of the parents toward their kids is one the main reasons ..

and from my point of view I think that the parents have to make a Evaluation Program for the kids and that must be hold Monthly if not weekly ..

Have a nice day
