I will be very surprised if you don't look back at this issue in five years' time with much more understanding and acceptance of what the mentors have been saying.
I believe I speak for most high schoolers when I say that I understand and accept what you are saying now. However, I neither agree with you nor believe your statements to be universaly true.
