Good Teens
Teens that act good set a good impression. Good teens are treated more respectfully than bad teens. They aren’t ignored or kicked out of places. Good teens usually listen, look welcoming, and do nice things like help carry in other peoples groceries, cut lawns, volun- teer some where. So in return they don’t want to be judged right away even though they’re a teen. You should get to know a teen or better yet any one before you decide to judge them.

Teens that act bad usually don’t set a good im- pression. They shouldn’t get treated as nicely as nice teens because they don’t work that hard to try to get respect. Usually teens think of themselves as “cool” and usually ignore people, be disrespectful, try to hurt peo- ple, and don’t care about anyone but their selves and their friends. It’s still not okay to judge someone no matter how bad they act. Just think what if they have had rough times and a family member died, or they are treated bad themselves so they think they have to do the same. But anyways this teen isn’t the type of teen to be.

Everyone has had a bad day!

Lauren’s notes
I haven’t really had bad experience with adults! I have just learned to like and love myself. So just be yourself no matter what anyone says. You will have your good days and you will have your bad days, but keep fighting. One day you can be best friends and the next you can be in a fight. So just know you not alone!!

Alana’s note
Its okay to be different. Everyone will have good days and bad days. Just know that you have to fight the bad days to get to the good days. This is like when I was selling candy with some of my friends, and they told us they wouldn’t do business until I got off their lawn because I was a teen. Now that I look back at it I know they are teen bias. Don’t let it get to you, if you have had a bad experience with teen bias adults. They might have had a bad experi- ence with teens before meeting you.

Are you different? If yes than that is okay. If no, well then your lying. Everyone is suppose to be different. You can have similarities but you can’t be the exact same. No one is like you, no matter what.
