when they see their famous idols smoke, then see peers and famous guys in school smoke,they will smoke... when the saw every person in the class has the latest phone, latest versions of laptop, latest upgrades, latest ipods, latest fashion bags dresses or hairstyle, latest cars.... they want it as well and will do a lot of pressure to parents to get what they want just to be cool as to their understanding, having these stuffs and doing these stuffs will make them COOL! and all the things they "think is cool" they will die not being a part of it. i dont know why they are these days so easily be persuaded by the flow... what about you? what can you say about these kids nowadays...

Kids now a days are inundated with imgaes of things telling them what is supposed to be cool. They are taught to think for themselves, just to follow. Parents need to teach their kids to have their own thoughts and not fall into the kids mindset.

thats true... i hope every parent realizes that... but sadly only some do... most just spoil them and let them decide even if its not good for them. thanks.
