How stupid is this? - Page 2 - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

~LadyJess~ · 02-07-2004, 03:31 PM

As most of you have already said, these kids are only 12. My brother is 12 and he has much more common sense than that but at 12 many kids are still naive about a lot of things. But of course there are also plently of "older" teenagers who still continue to do stupid stuff that they did when they were in middle school.

Ok, in the beginning, when I first replied, it may have seemed like I was implying that all 12 year olds are stupid. I'm 14, I know that not all 12 year olds are stupid and that a good amount of 12 year olds would know better. And I know that 2 years ago a ton of 12 year olds would have enough common sense not to take the pills, but I can also think of a ton of specific people in MY SCHOOL (which is one of the top 3% schools in the country) who would not know any better and take those pills.

but most of them are though. they're in that stage between childhood and puberty. I know I was really stupid at 12, probably more than I should have been.

I know I'd never do that. [I'm 13] But I know a lot of people my age who probably would.

They go through our lockers randomly once a month because of a coke bust a few months back. It really sucks. You can just have a pack of cigs in there and they'll suspend you for it.

Our school used to do that but it enevr helped, so they stopped doing it.

ahh the power of peer pressure.

personally i dont even think the fact the kids were 12 makes much of a difference. sure, they're naive in ways...but come on you know what it is. someone says these pills makes you cool...someone else wants to be cool so they take the pills.

its pretty simple really. is it right? of course not...
did they know better? maybe.

it happens

Not all 12-14 year olds are stupid. I'm 12 and im not that stupid to take drugs, (but im not saying im not stupid because i know I am

) "Yay, I'm gunna take this pill, puke my brains out, and get expelled! Then I'll go home and be grounded for the rest of my life!

" Some people in this world dont stop to think about that they're doing and what the concequences are going to be. It's just a matter of common sense.

As they should. Cigarettes are a health threat not only to the person who smokes them, but also to others. They are merely looking out for the greater good.

So the kids selling were arrested... c'mon, middle schoolers, it's insane... and they even suspect the selling of Adderall to be going on at my High School...

yah a few years ago, when I was a freshman, these kids in middle school were arrested for pot, like smoking, possession...I was like are you serious?

when I was that age I was wicked naive and like, I am never goin smoke, or do anying....jk now

I am one of those who is allergic to cigarettes and/or cigars!!
I start to water out with my eyes and sinuses drive me up the wall!!

I'm 12. I'm not stupid.

Well.. you get what I mean, hopefully.

A lot of people are stupid dumbasses, but their age has nothing to do with it. Just beacuse 12 is young is no reason to think they're all stupid and go, "Oh, well, she was 12, you can't really say anything" or whatever. Thankfully I won't be 12 much longer.

Janice Johnson · 02-12-2004, 11:01 AM

All of you people who say that "I'm 13, I have better sense then that" The jump from 12 to 13 is a huge step. A 12-year olds are still naive because they are children. 13 year olds are teenagers. A difference.

EricIdlefan · 02-12-2004, 05:53 PM

I wished that I was in-between the ages of 18-21!! The fun years for me!!
