[quote=Anonymous]In our circle of teens, I don’t think there is as much conflict in this regard as you would think. Our teens (15 and 18) just hang out with small groups of friends, not late at night or sleeping over, and go to their many school activities. They’re not drinking or doing drugs. They’re not dating either. Most all of their friends are similar. And we’re white Americans. The teen years aren’t as wild as they used to be (or as they appear in the movies). The only difference in approach to teens that I’ve seen so far is that some immigrant families do not want their kids to go away to college and would prefer they live at home and commute.[/quote]
