I Think That Ties In With Issues

Suck It Up. This Is The Life You Chose For Yourself, So Buck Up And Deal.

Sometimes When We Forget To Do Things For Others, It's Because We're Too Wrapped Up In Our Own Problems.

And They Just Slam The Door. And They Don't Peek Into That Land Any More. And They Forget That Teens And Tweens Are People, Absolutely Just As Much As Adults Are. And Their Problems May Play Out On A Smaller Scale, But The Things They Go Through Are Equally As Valid As A Ceo Trying To Figure Out How To Deal With A Crisis At Work. I Just Write For Teens Because I Love 'em.

Kids Are Smart. Knowledge Is Power. Let Them Figure Things Out. Don't Turn Into That Grown-up Who They Won't Come To.

Even So, I Was Proud Of Myself For Taking Action At All. I Didn't Hide Or Run Away Or Pretend The Ugliness Didn't Happen. I Stood Up And Said Something That Was True. I Said It Out Loud, And By Doing So, I Was Standing Up For Lots Of People, Not Just Me.
