I heard it this morning on the news. It's got a good beat. *taps foot*
Ridiculous idea. They'll be fitting them with explosive collars next.

I can think of other good anti-teen devices. Meet Left Fist and Right Fist to name but two.  The BR collars thing (minus the explosive) could actually happen if things get worse. Teens have no respect these days. ===KEN |

Surely an effective anti-teen device is merely to ban them from the fridge?

The most effective anti-teen device is usually in the form of good parents.
Something not always readily available.

I thought it was a good idea at first, but it also affects young children and babies.
And also, surely it'll just move the problem elsewhere?

It's hardly a positive step towards integrating teenagers into adult society, is it?
The Mosquito wouldn't be acceptable if it discriminated on grounds of sex, race or religion, but apparently discriminating against age is OK.
I think teenagers are a problem because they spend too much time segregated from all other age groups. Pre-teens spend time in adult society, post-teens spend time in adult society, but there is this narrow age group a large proportion of which just doesn't seem to be compatible with anyone outside that narrow age group. Partly down to parenting, partly down to the rules of society.
If they're allowed out on their own, they should be allowed into pubs. If they're not mature enough to be allowed to drink in pubs in the company of adults, they're not mature enough to be allowed out on their own.
