Not all teens who visit Douglas Park cause trouble

19-year-old reacts to letter on degradation of Douglas Park

Editor: I am outraged at the letter from D. Forster (The Times, June 25).

I’m 19 and I use the park all the time to relax and just hang with my friends. We don’t smoke or drink, so I don’t understand why this person is mad at all us teens. It’s only the bad ones that are getting into trouble, not the rest of us.

I am also choked that the park is taking a turn for the worse, but it’ very wrong of the letter writer to blame all of us, when it’s just the one or two groups that are causing the trouble.

T. Casteele,
