Agreeing on 22

Before I argue the question 22 I'd like to adress briefly other discussions. Like Jinwoo stated it is admirable to stick up for you're beliefs. Even in the case of the twin towers. I believe it takes courage in order to do anything that can change the world. I personnaly don't think I could commit suicide for my beliefs so the courage doesn't
Also for Daydreming I nevver invision myself as successful in for some strange reason. I always see myself as happy but living by the bare minnimum sometimes doing what that one kidd from Into the Wild did and go up to Canada and hunting. I don't know why but being a bigshot "phony" has never come up in my day dreams at least not for a couple years.
Thirdly, As for twelve I very very strongly care about the appearence of my date.
Finally, I'll share my opinion on to 22. I disagree with Beckie. It is Very Very normal to expirement with drinking, smoking and even if its not listed, sex. Many teens will try it and just like school it is a learning experience. It's our right as humans to be able to try what we want to because we have free will. We should learn how much alchohol we can handle so we don't make a fool out of ourselves later in life. People should learn about these substances just as they learn math in school. There is no better time to try it if you are going to do it in life. Sure it might not be great for focussing but having fun and being a rebellious teen is a stress reliever. Stress can cause just as bad impact on your grade as being hungover some rare occasions in school. I however do believe there should be a limmit and teens probably shouldn't be drinking more than once a week and they should not get completely wasted because that can cause anyone regardless of age to get hurt.
Both my siblings tried drinking and my brother smoking before college. They both said what they did in highschool is not even comparable to the amount of drinking in college. They both said they were glad they had some exposure so they didn't have extremely bad first expiriences with alchohol away from home.
I added sex to the statement because this issue, like drinking and smoking, is displeasing to adults and teens do it regardless. I feel that too should be tried. It's a practice that's been around for longer than any person. Its natural and it really is part of the circle of life. Kids do have choices they can make and though they shouldn't go around and always do these three controversial actions, there should be times when teens do try doing these actions. Feel free to disagree but I believe expirementation is natural and normal.

  1. Nick, I didn't write about #22, it was Christina. I wrote about 21. Just thought I'd let you know.
