That's how I look at it.

I don't forget how retarded I was as a teenager. I just wish the lessons came in the smaller doses they did when we were younger. Like, getting busted drinking in a field meant you had to make up with the guy that owned the property - not every guy getting a sex-offender conviction and three other felonies that followed you around for the rest of your life. But, it seems that the level of what scares kids straight has been raised... unfortunate.
