Teenagers

What is a teenager?
If you were to look it up in the dictionary it would say..... a person from 13-19, an adolescent. Did you know that before the 1900's there was no such thing as a teenager. No, when you turned 15 you were thought to be an adult.  But, know people don't expect you to even have a clean room!
One of my favorite books is "DO Hard Things" Alex and Brett Harris talk about how we need to overcome the teenage expectations. (Amen)
So many bad things happen during the "teen years". When our parents talk about all the bad stuff they did, what time period did it always happen? The teen years!!!!!!! And  we're next! We need to stop it!
