When Do You Pick Out Your Clothes?

by Sam P. September 12th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Now that I am in high school, I find myself doing something that I used to do in kindergarten and elementary school: picking my outfits out the night before.  It makes my mornings so much easier!  Say I run late one morning, I don't have to worry about trying

Over Padded: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. September 4th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Yesterday, the football gloves I ordered online arrived at my house.  I'm pretty excited that they got here, because my hands get destroyed during football season and I couldn't find the gloves I needed in any of the local stores (I play offensive and defensive line, so I needed

End of Summer Checklist

by Sam P. August 29th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
It is almost that time again, school!  Nobody wants it to come, but at the same time we are all secretly wishing for it to come quick.  And most of us are wishing this so we can see our friends.  But in our last few days of summer, check

Eating: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. August 20th, 2012| Teen Perspective
There maybe be no childhood stereotype greater than that of the picky little kid.  Everyone has seen at least one little kid wrinkle their nose at food, dismayed at the lack of mac and cheese or chicken fingers.  Both of my little sisters could fit that stereotype perfectly at

Teen’s Perspective on Summer Romances

by Sam P. August 14th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
What teenage girl or boy doesn't want to experience their first summer romance?  Specifically girls,  but either way, I don't think there is a single teenager that doesn't want to experience love.  And when you are going into high school, it is the perfect time to test out your

Money Management: From the (Driving) Teen’s View

by Jacob P. August 6th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
As I have said before, I am a saver. I rarely spend money, prefering to put it away for later.  When I do spend, I will mentally debate it for quite a while and even research what I am buying.  "Cheap" is an accurate descriptor of me.  Now that I

Teen’s Perspective on Everyday Chores

by Sam P. July 31st, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Nobody enjoys doing chores, it is a proven fact.  For some lucky teenagers, they get a weekly allowance for nothing, some do chores for an allowance.  And some teenagers do chores, but for no allowance.  (I would be included in the last group.)  Not all, and more like no,

Summer Shopping Sprees: Friend or Foe?

by Sam P. July 18th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
Before I even start debating against myself, I will say that this article is most certainly aimed towards the majority of  female adolescents.

Almost every teenage girl loves to shop.  And specifically with her friends, and no adults.  And why not?  You get new clothes, new shoes, new makeup, and

Rating Systems: From the Teen’s View

by Jacob P. July 9th, 2012| Teen Perspective
First of all, I would like to apologize for lying.  I didn't get the talk I  was expecting about the responsibilities of driving, so I will not be able to write the second part of that "My Expectations."  The only rules I got were about gas money, and they

Long Car Rides

by Sam P. July 4th, 2012| Teen Perspective
In a large family, flying places gets quite expensive, and quickly too.  Because of that, my family tends to drive everywhere.  Sure, always driving is boring and slow, not to mention cramped.  But almost always it is much more financially intelligent, especially with six people in our family, because

My Expectations

by Jacob P. June 25th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
So, at some point this week (I am writing this on Wednesday the 20th), I will be going to get my driver's license.  I have everything; I'm ready to go and I think I will do just fine.  So, I have been thinking about the rules that I expect

Teen’s Perspective on Family Birthday Parties

by Sam P. June 19th, 2012| Teen Perspective, Teens
On Sunday, I went to my four-year-old cousin's birthday party.  And when I got home I started thinking about how when I was his age I had two birthday parties, one with my friends and one with my family.  His was a combined one, with friends and family, and
