Explain Why We Shouldn T Care About What Other People Think Of Us

Improved Essays
I believe that we shouldn't care about what other people think of us. While that is an easy statement to say, it takes some work to get to that point. I believe that rather than constantly worrying about how other people perceive us, we should just enjoy the fun experiences we have. Who wants to look back on an event and wish they would’ve had more fun, instead of being driven by how people may judge you? Now I'm not saying that we should just completely forget what everybody thinks about us, I just believe that we shouldn't worry about little quirks that everyone has. We should still have a sense of self respect in front of others, but we should also feel free to have fun and enjoy ourselves.

My parents always tell me that you shouldn’t care

    When you read a story of any kind you become immersed in the story. You think about it in your waking moments or you can critique it in every way, but when that story ends you feel like something in your life went missing.

    I chose the topic to research what effect that pregnancy has on teenagers, their families and the people around them. Especially wanted to focus on the teenage girl and the decisions she has to make when she finds out she is pregnant. It is a huge responsibility to make the decision to have a child, to give your child up for adoption or to decide to abort your child; no matter the age. Teen parents are put into little stereotypes based on what people think they know about them, or what they have heard. I chose this topic because two of my sisters were teen parents, my other sister chose abortion and a lot of my friends got pregnant at a young age.…
