         Do you go on the Internet? The internet can sometimes be an unsafe place. There are wierd people on the internet that do bad things. One way to protect you from any of these things, is to get Internet Safety.

        People can steal all your information from your computer, and track you down, and somtimes even kidnap you….which…if you didn’t know….is BAD! They can pretend to be someone their not on the internet. They can pretend to be a 16 year old girl, or boy….when really, their 54, or someting. Getting internet safety will protect you from anyone out there who is crazy, and want to do something horrible to you.

       Make sure to switch to private on all your websites. BE SAFE!!!

Do you like to drive? Well, of course you do!! Right now, the law says to get your license at the age of 16. I think it should stay that way. People wait all their life to drive. They want to explore and be able to drive anywhere. When you turn 16, after getting a permit, you get your license, but you still can only have 1 person under the age of 20 in your car for 1 whole year. If they wait any longer, until their 18, then they’ll have to ride with their parents, which can be hard for some people.

Some parents might have to drive to work earlier then their child, so it could be a conflict. Anyway, kids like to drive. Right now, people might think that young children at the age of 16 might get drunk in the car, but parents should be able to trust their child to not drink and drive. If they don’t trust their child at age of 16, then their child shouldn’t drive anyway. Parents should also be happy, because having your child with a license, they can go out, and do chores, and go to stores for their parents. Everyone can’t be a terrific driver, but they shouldn’t wait for 18 to drive. People like to do sports, and jobs, and tons of other things. If their parents won’t drive them, they can drive by them-selves. There are positive things to be able to drive at 16. The law should continue to stay at 16 years old of driving.

In my opinion, I believe that the age of 16 is just right for people to drive.

Have you ever wished that you could go home earlier then the time schools get out now?

People get soo tired of being at school for 7-8 hours. School in the afternoon keeps us from doing anyting while it’s still sunny, and bright out. It would be awesome if school got out right after lunch, so that we got our education in the morning, and was still able to do what we wanted in the afternoon. I propose that we should convince people that school needs to be cut shorter, so people and kids have fun and get to do things in the day-time.

School also should get cut shorter, because then we could sleep in. If kids sleep in, and have their beauty sleep, their brains will activate for school. They can think stronger, and get motivated for school alot better, only if they had 2 hours of more sleep. Even if someone was sick, they could sleep and feel better for school.

I hope school will be cut shorter in the future!

Alot of teenagers spend so much time on electronics, instead of doing something more important.

When teens get home from school, they get on their phone, and chat with all their friends. Instead of getting their homework done, they call and text, even though they don’t have their homework done. Sometimes, teenagers don’t have homework, so they don’t worry about it, but calling and texting can also raise bills for your parents. Your parents probably tell you every day to get off the phone, and do something productive. Sometimes, it’s better to spend with your family, or do something active, and get excersise.

Other teenagers have X-Box’s and spend 7 hours a day on them. Those teens play video games, and are on the computer’s all the time. Sometimes, teens don’t realize the danger outside their window, when their boddled up in their phones, or computers.

I hope teens realize, there are more important things to do, then texting, or calling. I hope in the future, that teenagers spend more time outside in the world, or spending quality time with their family.
