It's disgusting. I've always had the mindset that there is nothing worse than a teenage girl. There is nothing meaner, there is nothing more heartless, and there is nothing colder.

I went to a very stereotypical high school. If you weren't "in" with the top cliques of the food chain (and I wasn't, though I'm proud to say that I wasn't by choice), you were subject to horrific rumours and bad treatment. It was dog-eat-dog, survival of the fittest.

Personally? I don't want my future child(ren) being raised and taught (academically AND socially) in an environment like that. I don't care if most parents use "Kids will be kids, teens will be teens" or anything like that for excuses. There is no excuse for that sort of behaviour.
