What a time when the "society" whe live in requires that children be left to be themselves, but God forbid they become something other than the sports star or academic angel so many parents pray for. How many stories of a person's past start: In High School he was wierd, withdrawn, a nerd, but now he's just a criminal. A violent person, not many. Most of these kids become the front runners in technology and business, because while others were memorizing plays for football they dreamed of the future. In my experience those kids that didnt speak up are still in college or just out and making a true contribution to the world, while the football star got kicked out of college, has a dwi and abuse chargeses filled. The biggest difference is the nerd is dreaming about the future while in the present and the football star dreams about the past while in the future. Hypocracy in it's true form is wanting kids to be themselves as long as there something that apeasses the masses. What a shame, who will lead the world into the future when no one is allowed to dream about it!! That is what is scarest to me, not a kid writting a story about weilding a gun.
