Why do you have to be 21 to drink? We are considered adults at 18. We can serve our country at 18. We can smoke at 18. We can buy a house or car when we are 18. And we can have kids when we want. Everything we do can be done at 18 or younger expect for drinking. Most everyone drinks before they are 21. Why do we have to wait until we are 21 the legally drink? Does this make since to any one?

our future

The teachers in the schools do not care about the students. they barely teach the students the curriculum and then wonder why 99% do not pass the proficiency test sophomore year. If there were more government fundings in the homes and schools parents and teachers would be doing their jobs.

Video Violence and Bashing in Blogs
Do video sharing sites like You Tube encourage violence and crime? To what extremes would one go to earn themselves a few minutes of fame?

HIP hop videos arent to blame
we need to stop putting all the blame on hip hop videos....first of all i love hip hop and yes i watch hip hop videos all the time. matter of fact i've grown up on hip hop videos and i have never wanted to be a stripper, i have never wanted to be in a hip hop video, i have never been a slut. To be honest i had parents that explained to me the difference between what's on Tv and whats real.
