I guess what I am trying to say is this. Sure, there are some rude people in the world and perhaps one may have to run into some of them on a daily basis do to somethings such as school and work, but that doesn't mean one should classify all other people similar to them as being the same as the bad example set by them. That would just be stereotyping.

Truthfully, in spite of there being some rude teenagers in the world, there are plenty of fine, mature ones as well.

well there surely aren't enough polite teens out there to change that stereoptyical assumption that the majority of teens are rude and, for some reason, lack the capacity to comprehend the social tool we call "common courtesy"
