We go to school because we have to
We have cell phones, mp3’s, land lines and CD’s are obsolete
We don’t trust adults, they don’t trust us
We made the teacher/student relationship nonexistent
We wear out shirts too low and our shorts too small
We wear oversized screen T’s and skinny leg pants
We got bandanas band from our schools
We kill self-esteem with just one look
We don’t have a relationship with our parents
We keep our friends close and our enemies closer
We’re too skinny and too fat at the same time
We have social hierarchies more complex than medieval times
We crush the intellects and grind their glasses
We don’t have privacy or rights
We’re the products of a corrupt system
We hate what we don’t know
We’re the object of hate
We blame our parents for our problems
We’ve killed proper grammar with texting
We’re the reason you lock your doors at night
We don’t know what culture is
We only know how to hate and be hated
We’re the people on the evening news
We’re the problem that no one tries to fix
We’re the ones you’re afraid of
We are America’s Youth.
This came about from observing my classmates and realizing that we are the problem. Most parents just don't care anymore and let their children do whatever they want. Mine don't, thankfully, and I am not like most of my peers. Many of America's youth are widely uncaring and uneducated by choice. They don't care. Why should they? For us the only thing we need to do is survive, we're terribly mean to each other and love has lost all its meaning.
