The biggest piece of advice I would ever give a teen is that the kind of man/woman you want when you are 20 is way different from the one you want when you are 30. Also, it doesn't matter who you are, the mad passionate feelings do die down and you are left with a kind of friendship.
Just because you have the hots for each other, it won't last. Look for a partner based on how much fun they are to be around, not how good they are in the rack.

It is almost impossible to compare our teen years and what teenagers have to go through today. When I was a teenager the worst thing that could happen to us was breaking curfew.... now days teens are exposed to so much greater things then us, Internet Preditors, The information they are getting and learning from the internet. It is making them smarter then we can handle. Laws have changed on how we discipline our teens, and the County services are non-existant when it comes to helping them. 911 has changed our ecomony and we are dragging our teen through it too. I feel for them and pray for them that soon we can give them resources and guidance so when they become adults, they will have strong enough power and wisdom to help run our Country!

I would tell them to find an adult that they totally trust, not to tell them what they want to hear, but someone that loves them enough to tell them the TRUTH. I would tell them to take them out to lunch, sip a coke and listen to THEM TALK.
Most people need to talk 90% less and listen 90% more. The Bible says that even a fool is counted wise when they keep their mouth shut. A wise person listens to people that are much wiser in knowledge and understanding than they are. Herein lies the core of excellence.

They have to learn from their own mistakes. Share your wisdom, and hopefully some of it will sink in. Think about it, the mistakes you have made in your life has made you the person you are today, would you really take that back? Besides, why can't you do what you want to do now? It sounds like you want to make changes in your life, go ahead and do it. I started changing my life at 31.

I know it is hard to tell a kid to stay away from drugs but that would be one I would like to get across to some. You never ever know what may have been put in what you buy. I know when I was 17, three different times I took this one chick to the hospital to have her stomach pumped because she done and took everything!

I was really smart, but i realized i was, so i was equally (if not more) lazy.
I put in very minimal effort and got decent grades.
I went to a decent college, and i got a decent job, making a decent wage.....
But if i had gotten accostumed to giving things 100%, i would have gone to a more prestigious university, gotten a more prestigious job, and id be making a more prestigious wage, or id be an entreponeur, or something, but what can you do

well, for teen its best if they keep themself on the track. I mean study and play in a normal way. But everybody have their own life and have to make their own choice. Live for the future and just let the past be a history. Learn from the history but don't let it disturb your future.

I would definatly tell them to be a kid as long as they can. Also I would tell the 18 year olds to wait until they graduate college to get married and have kids. I didn't wait. Now I'm 24 and still have not gone to college. If I had continued college, I would be in my career by now.

i would tell teens now... that i know you want to have fun now and you mean well you know what you are doing but trust me if you plan to grow up one day to a normal person you will look back and think about the bad things that could have happened to you while you did the fun things
