The news is always talking about "sexting", where "teenagers" send naked pictures of themselves on their phone to others. They said "your teen could be doing it right now. Now my parents took my phone to see if i've been doing it and I think it's very biased. This makes me mad because 1) They're generalizing that ALL teenagers do this and 2) they say nothing about adults doing it, just teenagers. They also talk about teenagers smoking weed and doing other drugs and also say "your teen could be doing it whenever they go out with friends". It just makes me really upset that the news tries to make out all teenagers as terrible people who always do things they aren't supposed to and now my parents think that I'm doing every single thing that the news accuses teenagers of doing.
 
Yes that is true not all or doing but if you compare by age the teen years have the highest percent for these things .
 
Not me, I think that characterization is an over generalization of the situation.
