Listening to music, writing, messing around on the computer  for hours on end :)  hanging out with friends when I can, normal teenage stuff, except I barely ever watch TV.\nI have a temper when it comes to my family, I'm constantly blowing up at them for little things, that's something I need to work on.  However with my friends I have a lot of patience and actually tend to hold it in when I'm angry at them.

Glad you asked, although it is probably too late to help someone if they are already a teen. SO, it is the responsibility of everyone in our society to instill values in children from birth. Monkey see, Monkey do ; parents need to be good role models, turn off the television and spend time with their families !\nThat is exactly how you help teen-aged boys ! ...... AND girls !\nGood luck.

Unfortunately, yes to the second part.  And it's unfortunate not because I don't want to know what teenages think or understand, but because so many of the just want to mouth off.  If you're a teenage, please think about your answers. This is nearly a good tool, but will never make it if every other question is about sex or "should I breakup with my bf...".

WELL THE KEY TERM IN THAT QUESTION IS TEENAGER.....TEENS LOVE TO CONVERS ABOUT DIFFERENT THINGS....I SAY JUS BE GREATFUL THAT THEY ARE HOME ON THE PHONE INSTEAD OF DOING ALL THE CRAZY THINGS THAT U AND I SEE ON T.V. LIKE DRUGS, AND SEX AND ETC. AT THE SAME TIME ITS A PHASE.....IT WILL PASS JUST GIVE IT TIME. SOME NEW FAD WILL APPEAR AND THEY WILL BE ENTRANCED INTO THAT...JUS MAKE RULES ABOUT "family time" AND NO PHONE CALLS OR TXTS DURING DINNER AND FAMILY OUTINGS.....IF THEY ARE A GOOD CHILD THEY WILL LISTEN.....GOOD LUCK

Well for one thing would you have gone to your parents at that age? Why are they asking? Because this is a time of their life when so many things get thrown at them and they are confused. \n I have no problem answering them though it upsets me when someone answers the question incorrectly or sarcastically. Everyone needs to go somewhere, would you rather they just talk to their friends who know as little as they do? \n As for children being delinquent well that has been forever, it is nothing new in this generation, or the last.\n What should be done, well help these kids with as much knowledge as you can. You don't need to encourage them but there is nothing wrong with their asking a question. I care a great deal. I have a 13 year old grand daughter and no one is going to tell her something about sex except maybe on here or another similiar forum. I can only imagine my daughters response if she asked her a question like you mentioned, I am open minded but I am not even certain how comfortable I could be trying to answer that question to her face. \n What should be done? Nothing, think about it the more information that they have the better decision they can make hopefully based on facts and not sarcasm or narrow minded thinking..

Adolescent suicide is an interesting topic. Just about every teenager I know has either considered it as an option or tried it. Many have friends who have succeeded.

teenage marriage, teenage pregnancy, or premarital sex... if that's not good, how about the sociallly concerned topics, like the groupings between teenagers, like the popular, the geek, nerds, freaks... things like that... or if not... how about how teenagers could help in the environment or things like that?...

If there's such concern, why don't they just set up an "adult" section of Answers - complete with an over 18 only message - that can be easily blocked by parents who don't want their kids exposed to certain material?

I am a youth counselor at a detention center for at risk youth and I see this alot. Now I am only 23 years old so I don't know how much I can influence the crowd here but here it goes. I think with the kids I deal with there are 2 main things that add to the equation. Parents and Pop Culture. With parenting I think people arent willing to put in the time and also agree with the fact that parents are trying to be friends. Also I don't know if there is any connection but I would say with the number of single parents increasing and the age at which people are impregnated. A irresponsible youth can't raise a responsible person. By the time the kids I work with get to be teenagers, the parent usually wants to make up for the teenage years that they themselves lost leaving a kid to fend for himself. As far as pop culture goes I just isn't popular to be nice anymore most music is about being depressed or being a gangster, alot of the movies my youth watch when not in program have to do with the same or with sexual acts. Well that's all on this matter for now any questions feel free to write.\n Timmy
