Immaturity

The one thing I hate more than cliques is immaturity. I mean, my sister is twelve years old and she acts like she's five. It really bugs me. I don't get how people can stand to be so immature. What do they get out of it? I really hate the fact that some parents encourage this behaviour. My generation is the most immature of them all, I'm willing to bet. In our eighth grade, we have problems in the boys bathroom. Boys do things that three year olds would do. It is very annoying. Why can't anyone see what it's doing to us? Every generation is getting more and more immature, and if someone doesn't stop it, we'll all have the intelligence of five year olds.
If people REALLY want to have an intelligent generation of teenagers, they need to stop encouraging immature behaviour.

Sorry

I sincerely apologize for not posting yesterday, I had family over and I couldn't really get on the computer when they're around. Once again, I'm sorry. As for today's ranting topic, I think I'm going to rant about cliques.

Hasn't anyone really realized what cliques are doing? Most cliques require you to pass some sort of inspection or test. Some cliques, however, are good. The one kind of test/inspection I absolutely HATE is when you are forced to decide whether to accept a cigarette or not. I hate it! It's the most (sorry) stupid thing a person could say be told to do JUST to get into a clique! I mean, where's the point in it? Next year I will be in high school, and I'm only worrying about cliques a little bit. I like being my own clique, alone, not really in any group of people. It's easier, I don't need to worry about being accepted into any certain clique all that much.
I'll stop ranting now while I can.

Do as you preach

Doesn't it bug you when people teach you something then don't act by that? An example of this is when somebody tells you to respect your elders, then doesn't respect their elders. People need to be led by example, and if you don't do what you preach, you're not leading a very good example. I'm sorry, but you're not. If you tell your child not to swear. . . you shouldn't swear in front of them, it sets a bad example. Children often copy their parents because they think it's cool. Once they learn the words, they're off and running.

Another example involves smoking, drinking, or drugs. If you tell your kids not to smoke, drink, or do drugs, then good for you. It's another thing when you tell them to not do those things then go ahead and do those things right in front of them. It doesn't make sense, does it? I don't think so.

I hate it when these things happen. There are very few good role models on Earth, and if you don't raise your child doing as you preach, then there will be even less.

Abortion

I've decided to rant on the unfairness of abortion. Many people think the fetus is just a blob. Well, sorry to burst your bubble, but its not. The fetus has hands, feet, arms, legs, and a head. When you have an abortion, you're killing an innocent forming child. Where's the fairness in that?

52 percent of U.S. women obtaining abortions are younger than twenty-five. Women aged twenty to twenty-four obtain 33 percent of all abortions, and teenagers obtain 19 percent. What the hell. 27 percent of women say they are Catholic.

Abortion is wrong. You're killing someone who might just someday become president. You never know. That person you just killed could have made the world a better place. If you have had or are planning to have an abortion, shame on you. It's murdering a developing child. I just don't get how a woman could want that. Sure, if you've been raped and are pregnant you wouldn't want to be pregnant, but just because the father of the child was a rapist doesn't mean the child should be killed. Videos have actually shown the fetus' fighting, trying to hang on. They want to live. You're taking away that freedom, Freedom of Life. Think on that.
