few posts ago i told u about the college youth group at church
and how most of people who attends the meetings are teachers of highschool youth group and sunday school youth group
well yesterday we had an outing
we went to Apple Bee's near by to eat
while eating we discussed various topics
one of the topics that came up was the high school kids they were teaching
they were saying how high school kids are so rebellious
they dont want to do anything
they wont participate
they act up
and all these negative things
you might read this and say that
kids are being just kids and its normal for high school kids to be acting like that
but from their (teachers) experiences
kids from recent years are the bad ones
there are some good ones among the bad ones but there are more bad than before
also little staff doesnt help
they would also complain about their behavior
they think (from what they observed)
one of them is doing drugs and things
and they know few of them are drinking and might be developing drinking problems
one of them talked about attending someone's birthday party at a Thai restaurant with bar that opens at happy hour
that someone being member of college group
and few of high school kids were guests
the Thai restaurant is know to not card them (checking ID)
so the high school kids (2 girls) got couple shots of hard liquor and got drunk
so in summery
kids are doing drugs
getting drunk despite being only 17 yrs old
and smoking
i am 19 and i havent done any of those
maybe 2nd hand smoke like in casinos and passing by smokers (not intentionally)
and few cups of wine and such with parental supervision but thats it
the surprising part of this is that they are not only young and attending church regularly but their parents have no idea and if they do know about their children's behavior they dont give shit or they dont want to do anything to fix the problem
what is wrong with kids these days
seriously
just few years ago kids used to be all innocent and such
now we cant even use the phrase "kids are innocent"
*sigh*
its just dreadful to think that alcoholics, crack/pot heads, drug dealers, and criminals will be in charge in the near future
i dont know about you but i am very optimistic but future isnt looking too nice right now
