Letter: The kids? They're all right.

Letter: I am writing to inform you about the discrimination against teenagers around Telford, including that of the security and centre staff at Telford Town Centre.

They seem to have adopted a zero tolerance approach to teenagers in general, evicting any teenagers who appear to linger more than the appropriate amount of time.

I recently went to the centre to meet some friends, which we do every weekend. We sat on a bench, causing no disruption to anyone.

Suddenly, we were told to move along because we had allegedly been sitting there for hours, when we had literally only just sat down.

One of my friends was then told to leave for asking a guard why he had to move when we were causing no harm.

We then walked around for a while and bumped into some other people we knew, but after a short while we were once again told to move, or we would be evicted from the centre. To me this seems extremely unfair.

Also, the majority of us spend our money in such shops as Primark, Asda, McDonald's and a range of other shops every weekend. So, if we get evicted, these stores will lose revenue.

My friends and I would like to get this issue dealt with, as we have now had enough of it.
