Ugh...I'm sure some people will hate me for this, but....there are tons of teen sites on the web. If teens want a place of their own, as *I* would if I were a teen, that's where I would go. The reason I say that is simply because I worry about the fact that we don't have full-time mods here to "watch over" a separate teen-only forum. But a website which is devoted to teens would have the proper supervision.

I apologize to the teens here who hate me for thinking they need babysitting. It's not that...teens are special to me. I would want them to have the extra protection from predators and creeps that full-time moderators could provide.

Also, how would we know who really is a teen?? And who is some 56 yr old who likes chatting with teens? The whole idea gives me worries.
