We were girls, you see, not even women, just girls, most of us when we started. And the boys were just boys, not men, most of them. We’d only begun to live life, we knew little and understood less. We were unformed, incomplete. It’s funny how easy it is to see that now. If you’d called me a child three years ago when this started I’d have been furious. But looking back? We were children just getting ready to figure out what adulthood was all about. . Michael Grant
About This Quote

When we were kids, we were children. And the boys were simply boys. Most of them didn't even know what to do with themselves at that age. They were immature, not developed enough to handle the responsibilities of sex. So why did they want us? Why did they think they could get away with it? We were just getting ready to figure out what it meant to be adults.
