Kids have been doing drugs, having sex, smoking weed/cigarettes, drinking alcohol etc etc for a long time. Every generation had kids that did this. Nothing really changed. The reason why it seems as if this is the only generation that has done all these things, is because it is more advertised now, then it was back then. Movies, tv shows, and countless of stupid fucking teenager Facebook statuses show it. Back then, the kids who did all these things, kept it a secret. But now, it is somehow a "cool" thing for a teenager to post statuses or pictures of him/her smoking weed or getting drunk. In my opinion, I don't find it a bit cool. I think it is a pathetic cry for attention. Fuck the media.
