It just really kills me.

When my sister was around 11 years old, I asked her if she knew what marijuana was.. My sister responded with, “Drugs that I hear about kids doing in my school”. When my sister was 11 years old, she was in fifth grade. It really made me think about what has today came to. Kids these days don’t understand they are still babies. When you’re young, you are supposed to go outside, ride your bike, hang out with friends, do well in school, be involved with after school activities. These days, they are smoking, getting pregnant, and doing drugs by the age of 12. I don’t know what made this era in they are in so horrible, but it does really scare me. When I have a child, I wouldn’t even know who I would want them to be around. Who knows who does what lately? I sound like a hypocrite though, because when I was 14, I was in the middle of 8^th grade, I got pregnant by a guy I was “in love” with, and he hit me and treated me like crap. I had a miscarriage at 3 months along. I actually have a sigh of relief that I had that miscarriage because I was definitely too young to even be having sex. I wish I could go back and change my childhood completely. I only had a childhood up to the age of 12, like I said before, that’s when it usually starts to happen now. I’m ashamed of doing things I shouldn’t have done so young. If I could go back, EVERYTHING would be different.
