What a portrayal of teenage life. There were many things in this movie that we as a society would like to think does not happen. But in reality it does. I was a teenager not to long ago and while in high school drugs, alcohol and sex are plentiful. There was not a weekend that went by that a party was going on and there you would find all of the above. These are hard topics to see youth portray especially since they really don't understand the effect that it can have on their lives down the road. All of the above can lead to pregnancy, STD's and other infectious diseases. Not to mention that death can be faced at any time while drinking or doing drugs. I feel that the youth did not respect themselves nor did they respect others. Sleeping around can do so much damage. I feel that these youth were confused. Not having any real role model to look up to and talk to. I can remember that feeling of being a teenager and not really knowing what life should be like. Do I do what my friends are doing or do I follow my heart and not give in to peer pressure. For me it was a little easier. I had a loving family whom I could talk to about almost anything. Although, I experimented with certain things in high school ( I was not perfect) I was careful and knew that my parents would be there with a quick call. Being a teenager was the roughest time in my life and would never want to relive it again. I am dreading the day when my daughter is in the same situation. If some parents stepped up and were there for their children and not the ones providing the alcohol and trying to be "best friends" with their children things maybe easier. Although, there will always be experimenting in this time of life maybe as strong parents we can curb the amount.

This is not a movie that I really wanted to watch. Was not my kind of movie, but it is good for people to realize that these situations exist and that teenagers engage in this kind of behavior. I won't watch again but am glad that I got the chance to screen the movie.
