“…absorbing recycled ideas and trends doesn’t ever compile up to a real identity.”

While I get what you mean about many high school students being self-absorbed and all “woe is me,” what constitutes a real identity? Even the most innovative thinkers have generally followed “recycled ideas” like wearing clothes, being empathetic, not picking their noses in public, etc. Is there such a thing as truly unique identity? We’re all a soup of other people’s ideas mixed in with some of our “own” so I don’t know how much you can criticize them for not being unique.

You also have to understand that adolescence is a very “me me me” stage and that people generally grow out of it. It’s hard to practice empathy when high school students are like that but I think they’re just trying to get a sense of their own identity and their place in the world.

Their sense of entitlement and superiority can be irritating but if we teach them (gently and not condescendingly) that there are things they can do outside of themselves, I think that would provide the best result.

Hope this didn’t come off as preachy. Hipsters annoy me at times too.

Well, I’m glad to see that you weren’t afraid to stay away.
I completely agree with what you’re saying, and thank you for such a great response to my rant. It was actually really geared towards a particular individual who thought that because one of my pet peeves is when people try to pass of images from stills of movies that they have never seen so they can appear “cool” thought it was very mature to take offense, and threaten to shove an “electric rod up my ass, and the ass of my friend Mariah.” I sincerely hope that she can survive teen angst, and that she realizes high school is not life, and she really does have the most potential to exceed even her own expectations. I don’t doubt for a minute she is her own person, but I guess sometimes it takes trying on different lifestyles until you find the perfect fit.

I saw this on her tumblelog and thought you might like it:

Taken: 1939

Discovered: 2008

In Anne Frank’s Diary Anne called Peter Schiff her “one true love.” In 1940 at the age of 11 she writes ‘Peter was the ideal boy: tall, slim and good-looking, with a serious, quiet and intelligent face. He had dark hair, beautiful brown eyes, ruddy cheeks and a nicely pointed nose. I was crazy about his smile, which made him look so boyish and mischievous.’ For more than 60 years there were no photographs known of Anne Frank’s childhood sweetheart. The photo above was discovered when a childhood friend, Ernest Michaelis, now 82, came to realize that the childhood friend that gave him this photograph (before Michaelis had left Germany for Britain) was the 13-year-old boy Anne Frank wrote about in her diary.
