Children are getting discriminated by adults everyday and we can’t prevent it ourselves without calling it talking back. Every day I go to school with a lot of staff who treat me as if I was some kind of drug dealer on the street. I understand that children can be unruly, but we don’t have to be all characterize as “those people” or “those kids”.
They think that we have no rights, because we have no part in their lives, were not going to be the ones to pay the bills on time, or pay gas money, or we don’t have any jobs. They can’t just assume that were all the same. I believe we shouldn’t be treated like adults but not like babies either.

The author's comments:
What really inspired me was when I seen people whole demeanor change when conversing with a child. Also I wanted to prove that we should be a little more demanding because we are not all just kids, we are kids that will soon fully roam the earth.
