We aren't all a bunch of thugs

I know this all started last week, but I was reading what Hannah S wrote and I personally know people who go up to the Telford courts to meet friends as there is nowhere else to go.

When we walk around the centre we get funny looks and we get asked to leave for no reason, and we see this as stereotyping.

I admit that not all teenagers are angels, but please let us live our lives. Don't judge us from what friends, family or the papers say.

I just want to say I'm not Hannah, I'm not other people I know, I'm Jessica. I'm someone different so please don't tell me I'm a "yob" because I'm not. Talk to us. Some of us are not as bad as you make us out to be.
