    The red line concerns me, the blue line depresses me, but the green line? Well, ya, your average high schooler isn’t terribly useful. That’s kind of the point of being a teenager. Be useless and enjoy life for a bit.

      The issue here is that kids are being expected to grow up younger and younger. Get a 40 hour a week job at 14 during the summer, and work after school the rest of the year. If you’re not working, you should be doing something that’ll look good on a college resume, like school sports or volunteer work. There’s no room for teenagers to just be teenagers in capitalism anymore.
