by Jacob P. January 23rd, 2012| Teen Perspective
This week, my school is beginning the final exams for the first semester.  At my high school, semester-long classes must have a final at the end and year-long classes must have a midterm at the end of the first semester and a final exam at the end of the

Teen Perspective: Farewell!

by Louise January 19th, 2012| Teen Perspective
Dear readers,

My oh my, how the years fly. On, August 21, 2008, I posted my very first article on Your Parenting Info from the teen perspective. I remember the article clearly, as if I wrote it yesterday, though it was nearly three and half years ago. This post will

Sleepovers on School Nights

by Jacob P. January 13th, 2012| Teen Perspective
Tomorrow night, I will be hanging out at my friend's house to watch the BCS National Championship Game (specifically to watch LSU win).  Because the game starts at 8:30 and it probably won't end to some time after 11 P.M., I am going to be spending the night at

Teen’s Perspective on New Year’s

by Sam P. January 2nd, 2012| Pregnancy, Teen Perspective, Teens
New Year's Eve.  The day everyone is told to stay up till midnight.  It really is quite a glorious day. Or night depending on how you look at it.  I guess you could even consider it morning.  Whatever way you look at it, it is a very important day

Homework: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. December 26th, 2011| Teen Perspective, Teens
I don't want to toot my own horn here, but I am a good student.  So far, halfway into my sophomore year I have all A's and one B+.  I also maintain a 4.14 GPA, which is in between an A and an A+ at my high school.  I

Teen Perspective: Celebrating Culture/Traditions

by Louise December 21st, 2011| Teen Perspective
If your family has some tradition other than the typical "American" ones, cherish them. Don't get me wrong, I love all of the American holidays and the aspects that go with them, but there's something about having a special holiday that no one else celebrates (in close proximity) that

Dieting: From the Teen’s View (Part 1)

by Jacob P. December 14th, 2011| Teen Perspective
I don't think it is necessary for most kids to arbitrarily diet.  Dieting can be unhealthy and stressful for kids and teens.  There are situations where dieting is an important step to take, for one reason or another.  So, I thought I would write about what I think about

Teen’s Perspective on Video Chats

by Sam P. December 5th, 2011| Teen Perspective
Oovoo, Skype, Facebook, Google, whatever software you use, they are all pretty  much the same.  Personally, I prefer Oovoo, but I find Skype to work fairly well, too.  I can't say anything about Facebook or Google because I have never used either of them.  I think the population of

Size: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. November 28th, 2011| Teen Perspective, Teens
At one time or another, every kid has wondered how big they will  be as adults.  I wonder how large I will be, and I'm fifteen.  It's natural for kids to be interested in their size, but worry over size is a completely different matter. Kids mainly only worry

Making a Memory Book

by Louise November 25th, 2011| Elementary, Teen Perspective
A memory book is a scrapbook for memories. The memories can be in the form of pictures or words, or a combination of the two. When I was in 6th grade, every student in my class was required to create a memory book that would be a record of

Grades Closing: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. November 14th, 2011| Teen Perspective
Last Thursday, my high school's quarterly progress reports were released.  Our school runs on a semester-based grading system, but grades are closed and progress reports are released at the end of the first and third quarters.  This allows the parents and students to see how they are doing in

Teen Perspective on PG-13 and R Rated Movies

by Sam P. November 7th, 2011| Teen Perspective
With the new Twilight movie coming out soon, I figured this is the perfect time to discuss this.  Now, if you have ever read Breaking Dawn, you know that some parts are very scandalous and very adult.  I was very worried that it would be rated R if they
