It all depends on parenting.... I'm 17, and am disgusted at how most kids my age act. I've been brought up well, taught to respect other people and their property. If I want something, I'll have to work for it. period.. Most of the people I hangout with are 24-27 in age, because I can't stand hanging out with most of the retards/losers my age.
I got mugged about 1 month ago.. I work mornings so I can go to community college in the afternoon/evening. I stopped at Sheetz gas station to get coffee at about 5:30 AM, and got jumped from BEHIND by FOUR guys (first inclination I was behind robbed was a punch in the back of the head) Not much i could do, just glad they didn't take the Cobra. They got my wallet and keys though... Just can't believe it took 4 guys to jump a 150 lb kid (right outside the front doors too) I couldn't eat for 2 wks after that. I got about 4 hits in the jaw, and my right ear was hit bad. I was bleeding from a cut in the back of my head as well. I still went to work, just had to get my Cobra towed and have new keys made for it.
People are so worthless nowdays.
