(1) I am writing to discuss the recent incident in which 12 teenagers were caught smoking marijuana at a party. These kids seem to be blaming it on everything but themselves: ‘Peer pressure’ is their latest excuse – as if other people could cause people to engage in illegal activities! I am appalled at this behavior – these kids should be thrown in jail to be taught a lesson. This just confirms my beliefs that teenagers are nothing but trouble. Why can’t people behave like moral human beings? What has happened to personal responsibility in this country? I’ve never been in trouble with the law (other than one time I was caught speeding – but that was different – I was late for a very important meeting and I had no choice!). This generation simply doesn’t care about what’s right or wrong anymore. -Marie Lamont
