....BEWARE! TEENAGER!

So, I turn thirteen today, but most importantly, become a teenager.
For some reason, parents across the world are frightened of their children becoming teenagers. And, my parents keep pleading for me not to turn into a 'teenager'.
I wanted to know why people are scared or intimidated by teenagers. So I investigated it. And here are the facts;
  • Overall, there were  137, 335 proven offences by young people in 2011/2012.
  • However, it is down 22% since 2010/11.
  • In 2011/12, there were 36,677 first time enterants to the Youth Justice System.
  • Howver, this has gone down by 59% from 2001/2 and fell twenty per cent in last year.
  • In 2011/12 there were 375 Anti Social Behavior Orders (ASBO's) given to young people.
  • However, in the last year, that number has gone down by 30%.

So, make what you like out of it, but I think our reputations are fading.
To brighten things up, I thought I'd share this sketch. The funny thing is, its quite true! But not always.
*no offence meant*

The quality is quite bad on this, but put up with it.
