Stop stereotyping teenagers by making national citizen service compulsory

Petition Details

We are a group of teenagers who feel like we are stereotyped frequently, such as being followed in shops, being stopped and searched in groups, seen as criminals and thugs, this makes us feel on edge and ashamed to be called a teenager. We feel our aim will make society a better place, aged 16-18.

Additional Information

Our research found that often terms used to describe teenagers were "hoodies, louts, heartless, evil, frightening, scum, monsters, inhumane and threatening."
