If you don't like your friend pressuring you to go out or what ever and it makes you uncomfortable they aren't worth your time... (I have learned this from experience)
I feel like this needs to be said so I`m going to be the one to say it. THIS REPRESENTS ONLY A PORTION OF MY GENERATION! Yes there are a lot of people that will shun you for not doing those things, but there are also people that won`t shun you. There is a portion of this generation that doesn't care about who does what. Also every generation before mine and after mine has people who care far too much about these things. You just see them now because we live in a world where it is much easier to communicate and often the fools are shouting the loudest. If you are of my generation and you don't care about these things good for you. If you do care about these things also good for you as long as you keep yourself safe. Thank you, rant over.
Maybe because teenagers naturally tend to take risks, even if just little risks. I think it is fair to say that someone who never takes risks as a teenager is going to grow up into a very dull person; safe, but dull.
Having unprotected sex and doing drugs at such a young age is not taking a risk, it's making harmful decisions.
Btw, I didn't take risks as a teenager and I'm interesting as fuck.
