Now it seems more than ever teenagers are trying to be grown and and in the “in” crowd, well more accustomed to what they see on T.V. Nowadays it seems as though the only important things you need to know are how to take a shot of liquor, go to the “hottest “ clubs, or even smoke. The funny thing is that they aren’t even of age. Teens are faking their age because of the age restrictions on all of those. They feel more restricted rather than protected from age restricting laws according to “ The Strait Times, Eisen Teo & Phylis Wan,Teens Using Better Quality ID’s (2010) ,p. n. d”. 
        Fake ID’s are more popular than we know, surprisingly they are very easy to make and purchase. The prices range from 30 to 70 dollars according to “ The Strait Times, Eisen Teo & Phylis Wan,Teens Using Better Quality ID’s (2010), p. n. d”. Teenagers don’t realize they are dire consequences just for owning one. You can have charges of possession of an forged item or impersonation which will give you five years in jail , fines, and both if you even have worst luck according to “ The Strait Times, Eisen Teo & Phylis Wan,Teens Using Better Quality ID’s (2010), p. n. d”. It’s not worth it trying to scheme your way into a club just for you to start off with a record being a minor. You risk getting fined for drinking alcohol up to $5,000 or being sent to juvie, and even sent to a foster home according to “ The Strait Times, Eisen Teo & Phylis Wan,Teens Using Better Quality ID’s (2010), p. n. d”.
