This kind of speaks for itself, but i'll explain my point. During the past hundred years or so, teenagers are reaching physical maturity faster than they used to, this is due to the artificial hormones and supplements in foods and drinks. This is becoming a problem in the views of some because you have physically mature people with the maturity level of a 13-14 year old or less. This has led to issues such as teenage pregnancy. Should we as a society adapt to this new change in human development or should we take out those hormones which are now an intergeral part of our business, food industry and drink companies? This is a very diverse subject so bring in anything you think supports your view or whether or not you even believe this to be true.
Google it for one, i'll look for some sources, but have you ever looked at an average milk container? It says, "artificial hormones" on most of them. This is because of the hormones they give the cows to produce more milk and grow faster. I'll get back to you on this, maybe not tonight though, im tired.

I'd love to see evidence for this.

Well, seeing that the average lifespan during several periods of human history in a few countries laid people in the grave between the ages of 20-30, I don't think teenage pregnancy is a new thing. At all.
I think there has been no found correlation between the hormones in food and the younger physical maturarity, but a lot of people believe it is due to it. We talked about it in health but I forgot the reasons my teacher gave
Teenage pregnancy has existed since the beginning of time
Dur, but what I mean is that the hormones are causing kids to develop faster, therefore there are more teenage pregnancies, where as before you couldn't even have a child until you were older, that age has lowered. Plus, if you read my op...
issues such as
Teenage pregnancy was just what I used to spark it off, there are other issues as well. As for proof, read the links I gave you or go look for your own. So, to reitterate,
THIS IS NOT ONLY ABOUT TEENAGE PREGNANCY IT IS JUST ONE ASPECT OF THE ISSUE.
well i think we should adapt to the rising maturity level of teens. I believe it would be easier then taking hormons out of the food which will never happen because we need it to feed the millions of people in the U.S. and well all over the world. If we didnt have those hormons to increase supply many people would be looking at food shortage.
On a side note. Is it really benificial to have this many people on a planet? Nature balances things out, but when we break that balance, things will go awry. Every person is another chance to have some wacko that could start a nuclear holocaust.
rising maturity level of teens
Rising, as in, more mature? Don't make me laugh, people are more immature today than ever because we have stuff that does everything we need for us and democrats that take public money and give it to illegal immigrants and people who spend that money on beer. We are in no way a mature community.

Maturity is very relative. It's in the eyes of the viewer. There is no "maturity scale" to determine if we are more or less mature than a century ago. You are brainwashed by Faux News telling you that morality is down. Most teens are responsible individuals.
and democrats that take public money and give it to illegal immigrants and people who spend that money on beer. We are in no way a mature community.
You're an ignorant xenophobe. Most "illegals" are hard working people who want a better life for their family. Stop making baseless judgments.
Yes, becasue when your 30 and your still cracking jokes that you'd expect to hear out of an 8 year old, that PROVES there's no maturity scale.

Sorry for confusion listman, the illegals and the beer people were supposed to be seperate, as in the illegals get massive sympathy from the democrats and the poor people get welfare checks which they spend on beer, which is why they are poor. Didn't mean to group the two, that's just how it came out. As for the illegals part, I have no qualms with them except for that they are here ILLEGALLY and they disrupt the economy somewhat. Also, they can't get much better jobs here than there, because they get stuck with the jobs that pay 5 dollars an hour that nobody wants.

So 30 year olds have never laughed at immature jokes in the past? This "roblem" just started now?
You aren't making any points. Fart jokes have existed since the beginning of time. What makes you think that this just started? And how does a 30 year old laughing at a childish joke mean that the world is less mature?
