Tell me again what purpose teenagers serve to society? Why are we not shipping them all of to work camps/education centers where they can be controlled and shaped into actual productive members of society?

I think I'm gonna punch the first person who tries the "young adult" crap on me.
While I agree, teenagers belong in positive, formative environments like school, work, sport and extraciricular activity... I think much of what we are seeing is a direct result of the selfish, self-centered, anarchistic, yet pacifisitic hippie generation that produced these degenerates. Many of these types were so appalled by the "abuse and tyranny" their parents and society "unleashed" on them, they resolved to never discipline their children and let them be free (as to allow themselves to do whatever they wanted). While this is a bit of a generality, it genuinely seems to fit the bill.
