Teens: What Do You Think Teenagers Need More Support With?

Question by Moi. . .?: Teens: What do you think teenagers need more support with?
Say if there was a foundation to support teens and help them along, what would you like it to include?

Drug,drink,abuse,pregnancy,eating disorders, education, careers. Anything else?

Also what would you call the foundation?
I’ve got ‘Turn Around Teens’. Any other ideas?

Best answer:

Answer by Nox
Health problems, especially ones that cause the patient to be chronically ill. There’s a connotations that I know a lot of people hold that young immediately equates healthy, which makes it difficult for a ill teen to be understood and integrate with others. There’s also an emotional aspect with being ill that is important is addressed. I really think ill teens and children are an overlooked issue.
