Are we being Dictated?

We as the teenagers of today are being dictated in so many ways that it is a wonder that we are all not clones. We are dictated by the “popular people” the principle and school rules by television and worst of all magazines. These things all tell us different things. Be this way dress like that don’t do that talk like this. What if I don’t want to be like this? Reject ,freak ,nerd , outcast! Why are the children of today so cruel. The greatest icons of today are the ones who dared to be different and boy did they have a hard time of it. The thing is that we are being dictated without us even realizing it. We the generation next have been hoodwinked ,like babies , into believing that this is how we actually want to live. Surely there must someone out there who asks themselves why. But the thing is that although some people are idealists most of us are just drones who believe there is nothing more than what we actually see on the surface. We are a generation of shallow drones who look at the appearance of someone before we look at who they actually are as a person. We have orientated ourselves to believe that the people who look like cover girls of seventeen (and who are just as rich) are actually going to be the nicest possible people and we make them popular and obey every command. So I ask you do you really want to live this life??
