Why do they have to be the best in ev- erything? The answer is so= clety. Society sets a certain stan- dard that everyone is expected ter folio*. The people who don't conform are considered differ - A sick man got well. • "It would do your heart good," his wife said, "just to hear him eat again." eat, a dirty word in society to day. I'm tired of conforming to society and the status is sets. The biggest status symbol to- day is college. You MUST go to one and, if possible, the big- gest and the best. Today many of us are not meant for col- lege either mentally, physically, or emotionally. ° College only adds to the pressures society has already set. Adults are constantly " telling us that the teenage rate for suicide and the addiction to nar- cotics and alcoholism keeps in- creasing. Why? The pressures of living up to adult's expecta- tions almost force them into it. They can blame themselves. It seems as if. adults are try- ing, to push us out of our teen years. BVhat's the rush. They will go fast enough as it is. I just wish they would leave us alone and let us grow -up by' ourselves. ews � (Intended for last week) Messengers The Woodham Messengers met on Sunday during church service for their April meeting.
