the weight of all things

If you’re under 18 and you have outspoken opinions on controversial issues (re: abortion, homosexuality, feminism, socialism, etc)…

then I will respectfully listen to you, but I will not give you much credence. Up to this point in your life, you have probably believed everything that you have been taught by your parents/peers/religion/community etc. And I don’t blame you for that. If you’re not accustomed to critical analysis and thinking for yourself, then you probably have never even questioned your beliefs. But you’re approaching the age in which doing that is imperative. And your opinions will likely change.

#I know not all <18 year olds are like this.

#But most are.

#I was like this.
