Assignment # 2

             Theres been a lot of times when my friends and I have been discriminated because of our age. Even though we ment no harm, it was just guessed that we would act in a inappropriate manner. My friends and I had decided to go to Spiro's once because it was one of my friends birthdays, and we were stared at as if we were some aliens and people wispered around us. The parent superviser had booked us our own table and paid the limited amount we were allowd to spend, but we were still treated as if we were just going to cause trouble and attract attention from other customers. First of all, they seated us in a table where they could always be watching, and the waiter only came if we called them more then a few times. Around us were couples and they suspected that we were going to do something inappropriate. Can't a group a of girls talk even a bit at a restaurant? That was only one of the times when we were looked at from a negitive perspective, but it is a very common problem which should be looked at. If teens are always looked at from a negitive perspective and blamed for everything, then teens will try to cause even more trouble because they get mad. Once again, teens should not be discriminated against any right because we have the right to recieve as much respect as every other Canadian citizen.
