Robert Davis's Influence On Teens In 1970
teens in 1970 could just walk around wherever they pleased. they could do it without fear and they wouldn't get in trouble. Like mark just played pool in Charlie's bar they could fight at school. Today teens can't go anywhere without fear or an adult. Teens today normally have someone with them wherever they go.

Teens were often marginalized by the adults, who “didn't want to be bothered with the very different values of teenagers” (Powers 2).

This reveals how teenagers thought it was good to dress well.
