Don T Get Me Speech
English homework, by Chloe Brehony 10J.
Don’t get me started on . . . the youth of today.
In response to this over opinionated segment I would like to express how outraged I truly am. Being a young person today I feel that the majority of us normal everyday youths are being stereotyped into a hood wearing, crime committing and drug abusing association. Throughout my response I am going to voice my perception of your youth hating statement, and give you an insight into the aspiration filled youths, like myself. As you claim to know a lot about how we don’t care about such things as- `abused animals’ and ‘starving children in poorer countries.’ This has angered me, as many schools all over the UK organise charity days, where we raise money for causes such as abused animals and poverty stricken children. The good aspects are never reported upon; such as the ones listed in the above paragraph.

I also, have never heard of such disturbing events such as `mentally disabled children being beaten up’ and being recorded, no normal youth would ever watch anything so disturbing! Also I would like to add, homework is not a `thing’ of the past, it is still a very important part of school life and if homework is not completed an appropriate sanction is

    Schools must embed in a child what acceptable and unacceptable behaviour is. A child or young person who is on the ‘at risk’ register or who have been identified as being at greater risk need to be supported by school and outside agencies where needed. All agencies have to consider the ways in which their approach is child-centred, for example, involving a child in meetings, asking them what they think of situations and decisions and ask how they feel about possibilities being discussed.…

    Schoolies

    • 538 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Schoolies is promoted by a website that delivers the message that ‘this year will be the safest year yet’ and how schoolies is a week of celebration not disaster. Embarrassing as this is, these statements are sadly wrong. The main problems faced on schoolies are consumption of dangerous amounts of alcohol, drug use, unsafe sex practices, violence, sexual assault, drink spiking, toolies and in recent statistics even death. When we read articles in newspapers about schoolies we expect to see positive feedback, not incidents such as 30 arrests in one night due to a number of different factors. For schools to be seen as a safe environment is awfully wrong, what it really shows are sensible young adults turned into immature teens that cannot handle a get away.…

    Not everyone, but a lot of people follow the assumption that the youth of today's society are nothing but bludgers. Youth usually have plenty of negative assumptions placed upon them such as being known as ‘Know alls', ‘Trouble makers', ‘Druggies' and irresponsible. This names just a few of the negative assumptions that youth have placed upon them nearly, if not, everyday. There are also some positive assumptions made in regard to the youth of today, these are statements like they (the youth) are beginning to understand the importance of education in order to have a chance at a secure future. Youth are very out going and don't have a concern for tomorrow as they prefer to live for today. Youth have a creative imagination, not just towards art and work, but towards life in general and are willing to learn new skills in order to forward their knowledge, and are being thought of as the future generation. I believe that all of these assumptions have an element of truth, but in the way of being stereotypes. To certain individuals, these assumptions may be true, but not every youth is a trouble maker or a drug addict and so on. As I said before, everyone is an individual and so should be treated as one, and not just as ‘one of them'. The reason I think this is because I know that I…

    It has become a habit in recent years for people to assume that someone else is in the wrong, “Just because you are right, doesn't mean, I am wrong. You just haven’t seen life from my side” (Anonymous). Everyone leads different lives that someone else will never know the struggle they have endured. Most people think of teenagers as liars, stealers, or a hoodlum. Most of these thoughts and ideas about us teenagers are completely false, but we still have to shoulder the burden of these words.…
