Public Service Announcements are very important to American society because they push social agendas as opposed to products. We are forced to confront and learn about issues in our communities that we are able to change and affect. Successful PSA campaigns have the power to change how a group of people thinks about a certain issue and even affect their actions. Our group decided to do a topic that none of us had seen a PSA on before, but we all had seen as a problem in the real world. We  had noticed that many of our peers were becoming stressed and frustrated as senior year went in to full swing. Some were becoming stressed to the point of anger and had taken this anger out on their own friends. We are hoping that our PSA can persuade our peers to take a second and relax before they hurt the people that care for them. To do this we would like to portray  some of the sources of stress in teenagers, and then show ways that this stress is alleviated in negative ways that hurt others.
