My
complaints
I want
FREEDOM OF
CONSCIENCE: I want to be able to think
what I want. I want my freedom, in spite of my age, to be able to think what I want.
Nobody should stop me from choosing my own beliefs. My parents are
Catholics (but it could be any other religion for that matter). They baptized me but I did
know about it. They made me make my first communion (lots of great gifts). They make me go
to Mass on Sundays (if don't go they don't give me pocket money and I am prepared to self
myself). They make me go to confession (if they only knew) and worst of all they make me
go to an ultra-conservative school. All this would be ok if I held their beliefs but I
don't believe any of this. I am an agnostic (but it would be the same no matter what I
believed). I love my parents. And I know that they love me too. But my parents are afraid
of life and I want live and enjoy life.
SEXUAL AND EMOTIONAL FREEDOM. I want to love and be loved by whom I want. For
the last two years I have an older friend. I am not gay, I like girls. He doesn't, but we
understand each other very well. It is nobody's business what we do or don't do. But
my friend could be put in jail for the simple fact of loving me. They would say that it
was an abuse of a minor. Who is he abusing? I want to be with him. I love him. Have they every heard
about mutual consent? In any case there are all these people who want protect me. They
want to stop me from being happy and stop me from growing. There are so many groups that
speak in my name. But they have never asked me. Do they ever ask kids their needs or
feelings? They take it for granted theat they know what is best for us. But they are only
defending their conservative and puritanical ideas of life. I want to be able to love any
person without condition of age, sex, social condition or economic condition. This is what
the Universal Declaration of Human Rights says. But they only say it for adults. For kids
it is the exact opposite. Stop protecting me, please!
FREEDOM TO LIVE WITH THE PERSON I LIKE. I am no property of my parents. The laws won't allow me to live with whom I like, they force me to live with my parents. But I demand my rigth to live with my friend, simply, because I want and he wants to. My parents and the law have me kidnapped.
FREEDOM NOT TO BE A MURDERER. I do not want to be involved with either the military or wars. I could
say a lot of more about this, but I don't dare to because I am not a hero. All military
men frighten me. You cannot trust them. The further away from them the better.
CHILD PORNOGRAPHY (pictures)
ACADEMIC FREEDOM. Freedom to go or not to school. They force me to go
a school I don't like. I don't like the teachers -true child abusers-, I don't like the
subjects they make me memorize
without even understanding them..., I don't like the ideas they are trying to force on me,
on human beings, on the world and on life... I want to study. I like it. I even get good
grades. But I demand my right to be able to decide for myself and not forced. I want them
to teach me to think, to develop myself as a person, to be free. I like freedom wich is
the only thing wich is worth bothering about. But is the thing that adults, governments,
police, teachers, laws and churches try no take away from us. They are afraid of us if we
are free.
MANIFEST AGAINST THE CENTER OF MENTAL HEMIPLEGIA
FREEDOM TO VOTE. That is to vote or not to vote. I demand my rigth to
be able to vote or not
in the elections. I hold double nationality and in neither of the two countries can I vote
because of my age -age again!-. And in one of the countries if I had the rigth to vote, I
would not be able to abstain. Do you understand that? I don't.
FREEDOM TO BE ABLE
TO WORK. Freedom to be able to earn
money if I want to and I am able. They say that child labor is exploitation, as if that most adults
were not. But children are forbidden to work by law. I want to be able to work, not be
exploited. Work is not the same thing as exploitation.
But above all, I demand that
STOP PROTECTING ME!!!
