Teens Are NOT That Bad
2009-09-14 10:00:00 Before I had children I heard people joke about having teenagers. Like how it was more fun getting a root canal without anesthetic--that kind of thing--but honestly? It kind of surprised me because while I don't recall the teen years being the most enjoyable part of my own life it seemed as if my parents had survived, sanity in tact and none the worse. Though you may not want to quote me on that.When our first child, Grace, was born one of the first times I took her out as an infant fresh from the hospital Andrew and I were at a store when a woman stopped to look at our new baby. She gushed and fussed over our beautiful daughter then looked at us full in the face and in complete seriousness said, "Enjoy her now. This is the best that it's going to be."I stared at the woman, open-mouthed. I couldn't believe she'd say that and then felt horribly sorry for anyone who had had such experiences with their children to allow them to make such a statement.Of course I could be kidding my...

College Tourcation (sic): Teens & Papa in Tow
2009-08-17 17:34:00 This summer marked the first college tour/vacation (or as I am calling it now "tourcation") for Family Jacobsen plus grandpa. My husband and I were blessed to have three children within 15 months: twins and a singleton. Seventeen years later we now have two high school juniors and one sophomore. Therefore, as any hopeful couple who ever wished to be empty nesters, we are taking our West Coast family on an East Coast car trip from one college campus to the next. Thus, wishing to instill our college yearnings and hopes into our sweet but clueless teenagers. And because we are inveterate tourists -- gluttons for historical sights, we managed to pack in some American History along the way. Who knows maybe they will use their experience for a college admissions paper or scientific experiment e.g. What earplug brand works the best to drown out Papa's snoring? We started our grand tour in Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill, North Carolina, home of Duke University, University of North Carolina...

Up to 94% of teens leave Church after high school
2009-08-01 11:35:00 Great news! "Studies show between 64 and 94 percent of Christian teens leave the Church within a few years of graduating high school." Says, who? A bunch of atheists? No. The Church Communication Network ("CCN") says so, in this press release. The real question, here, is: What's wrong with the other 6% of Christian young people, that they don't see the light? In response to having the vast majority of their flock waking up and leaving the church, shortly after graduating from high school, CCN, a satellite and internet provider of training and ministry content to churches, and Focus on the Family, the ultra-conservative religious organization based in Colorado Springs, are holding a "Christian apologetics" seminar for teens called Big Dig, later this month, to try...

Most depressed teens recover with treatment: study
2009-02-13 01:47:00 A majority of teenagers treated for major depression show lasting improvements, though it may take several months for the benefits to appear, a new study suggests. The study of 439 teenagers with major depression found that while only about one-quarter saw their symptoms go into remission after the first 12 weeks of therapy, that rate improved to 60 percent by the 9-month mark. When it came to long-term recovery, the researchers found that of teenagers who did respond to therapy early on, two-thirds maintained the improvements over 9 months. The same was true of 71 percent of teens who initially took longer than 12 weeks to respond to therapy.

Facial Expressions Babies to Teens
2008-08-26 14:17:00 Finally i got my copy of the Facial Expression Babies to Teens by Marc Simon for which i got an award at the Orlando 2006 NCN Annual Convention(you can see here the drawings i have made for this book).

Ex-Diplomat: Sex With Teens OK in Brazil, Congo
2008-07-11 12:55:00 ALEXANDRIA, Virginia — An ex-diplomat convicted of having sex with teenage girls in the Congo and Brazil and taping the encounters is asking a judge for leniency, claiming that cultural differences in those countries make sex with girls more acceptable. Gons G. Nachman, 42, pleaded guilty in April to possessing child pornography after admitting that he had sex with 14- to 17-year-old girls while serving as a consular officer in Brazil and Congo and documenting the encounters in pictures and videos. The judge has agreed to delay Nachman’s sentencing until Aug. 22 so that he can be examined by noted forensic psychologist Stanton Samenow. Defense attorney Stephen Stine said in court papers that a psychological examination might show that cultural differences led Nachman to believe that sexual contact with teenage girls was acceptable, and that should have an impact on what kind of sentence he receives. Prosecutors rejected the notion that Nachman’s victims somehow deserve...

Meaghan Jette Martin en Camp Rock
2008-06-09 10:03:00 Gracias a Disney Society nos enteramos que el usuario bindibamboo ha subido un exclusivo vídeo de Camp Rock a youtube vía MSN.En este vídeo podemos apreciar la personalidad de Tess Tyler, interpretada por Meaghan Jette Martin. Como sabemos, Tess es la antagonista femenina de la película. Ella planea ir a Camp Rock por ser demasiado cool. Ella es muy popular pero desprecia a los que no ve en su nivel, como Mitchie (Demi Lovato). Su sueño es ser una estrella del pop.En la escena, vemos a Caitlyn Geller (Alyson Stoner) la mejor amiga de Mitchie, tocando, pero es interrumpida por Tess quien se había dado cuenta que Caitlyn estaba captando la atención de Shane Gray (Joe Jonas), por lo que se le ocurre decir que había una serpiente en la habitación. Cuando ha cumplido su objetivo, el grupo le dice porqué hizo eso, ella hace con sus manos la señal "What-ever major loser", sin embargo Mitchie le devuelve el insulto de una manera bastante elegante.Miren el video!!!
