I have no sympathy for the average teenagers. Being in high school, my peers have bled me of it. If you are too stupid to step back and say "I need some healthy self-improvement." then what's the point?

At my school I usually have one soda, lunch, and a sugar cookie if I have two quarters of change.

For lunch it's between Rib sandwiches, pasta, burgers, cold ham/turkey sandwiches, nachos, chicken strips, spicy chicken, and some other foods. No one is putting a gun to anyone's head. In fact, some still brown-bag their lunches.

As for kids annoying their parents for cereal or food, who cares? It's a part of childhood. That's like trying to limit the amount of toys any kid can have just to solve the mundane problem of keeping a toy chest in order. It's ridiculous.

Everything is becoming too sanitized. The next thing you know action figures will not be muscular or have weapons to promote peace.
