Most of the time the things we say or do is not a reflection of our true selves. We do these things to impress others, to fit in. If we only concern ourselves with what others think, then you will never show anyone your true inner self. To talk bad behind other peoples backs when most of the time that person has done nothing to you is just wrong. Us teens now days need to break out of that stereotypical nutshell that we're in that has the need to impress everyone else. We need to do what we know is right and not concern ourselve with what our friends think, because true friends wouldn't make you do those things.
