Teen Related Debates

Topic #1:

Teen curfew laws, are they fair?

For those who favor yes: Kids can stay out of trouble, but answer this: What if a teen was on his way home, and was stopped by an officer?

Favoring no: If the teen is going home from a movie, they shouldnt be arrested. but: Kids dont get enough sleep as it is, why not set limits to reduce crime?

Topic #2:

Should teens be forbidden to drive with other teens?
Note: They are already bound to other restrictions...

Favoring yes: If they pass thier test, they deserve to give thier friends a lift. Responsibility, a good reaction time, And judgement, any teen with these qualities are capable of driving.
But: What if restrictions save lives?

Favoring No: New teen drivers arent ready to deal with distractions of friends. Laws limiting passangers save lives.
But: How do you respond to those who say the restriction is age descrimination?

What are your thoughts and views?

alright.. i'm only gonna debate with topic 1.


no, yes.. i do think curfew laws are fair. those stupid friggin teens, goin out and smoking. well, most of them i know. i live in philly, i got asked to smoke/drink plenty of times. sometimes i hate teenagers.. sometimes. some lost thier virginity by 14. you see all these drunks teens on popular shows like 'cops'. it's just bad. if you ever saw bowling for columbine or whatever it is these freak kids went in and shot up the friggin place. and curfues arent inforced everywhere. so.. some kids just gotta learn thier friggin lesson.


by the way, nerds arent out past the curfue times. and nerds don't do anything bad, so they dont have to worry anyway =D

Heh, maybe that's why everyone picks on people like me, Because I'm never getting into trouble and I'll be the kind of person who goes to college and makes something of myself

I dont think they are strict enough. Teens are still out at night, generally pissing the populace off.

i agree, and i am the same. going to make something of myself and people think that is.. wrong? nerdy, as you could say. but it's true that they screw up things at night.

sometimes they wake me up.. you know, in the middle of the night. with the kids in thier friggin car and sitting there just alking by it.


BUT about topic 2. teen drivers should be able to drive around with other teens. like.. thier friends and such. as long as they arent drunk, or troublemakers. or something like that. i cant really say anything more about that.
