The thing when dealing with teens is remembering what it was like to be a teen while retaining the knowledge you've learned in your years. A teen problem, when viewed by an adult who has to pay the bills or starve, sure would seem juvenile. But to the teen the issue is as real as me working to put a roof over my head. And maybe I understand a little better just because I'm only 25. I'm not saying at all that you don't. You just have to remember that teens have different problems then adults do and with the hormone changes they go through, it makes things difficult. Toss in depression or abuse or ADHD or some other kind of mental illness, being a teen can be very trying. That's why there's such a high rate of teen suicide. I think a safe place for teens to talk about teen issues with someone they feel comfy with would work wonders for the many teens we have here. I'm all for it. Hope ya don't hate me for my opinions.
