On television teenagers are often portrayed drinking, doing drugs, and having lots of sex. Because the teens doing this on TV and in movies are usually played by adults in their late twenties, viewers see the mature bodies of these people and aren’t overly concerned. People who look like that should be allowed to drink and have sex. But anyone with kids knows that real teens don’t look anything like the adults-playing-teens on TV. Real teens look really young. If television and movie teens had to be played by REAL teenagers, viewers would be VERY uncomfortable with the rampant sex and drugs and society would have to come to terms with the actual people they are telling it’s normal to do drugs and have sex. This one small change could revolutionize television and movies–many of the sex and drug plots would magically disappear.
