What is the most important issuefacing teens your age today? How should they deal with it?
I think one of the most important and difficult issues teens deal with today is peer pressure. So many teens are pressured into doing things they are not comfortable with. I know I have certainly dealt with peer pressure.
Some issues concerning teens today are drugs, drinking, sex and other important issues. Everyone is brought up with different values and morals from their parents. As we get older and start to experience new things theses values get challenged and we have to choose what we think is right and what is wrong. I know myself I have been offered drugs at party's and I haven't done them. It is something that I do not feel I need to do or tell people I have done. Pressure from my peers has made it hard sometimes to stick to my values. But I also know that I am the one that has to live with my choices. I don't think doing drugs is wrong and I have no problem with people that do them. I just don't feel the need to do them.
As I get older I feel that pressure doesn't affect me as much and I can stand up to the pressure. I hope that I don't pressure my peers into anything that they feel uncomfortable with.
