Your  teenage years can be like a bumpy ride.  The cool thing about being a teenager is realizing that how you feel and how you act are two different things.  You can't change the way you feel right away.  But when deciding what to do, you always have choices.

AFRAID

Will my parents always be there for me?

REALITY CHECK

Your parents want to be there for you no matter how old you are.

LOOK INSIDE

Sometimes it's hard to feel secure and connected.  Ask yourself why you might be wondering this right now.

TALK

Share your feelings with a friend, or our family.

I feel like I'm not the person my parents hoped I would be.

OPEN UP

Compare notes with your parents about what they want you to be and what you want to be.

GET REAL

Your family loves you for who you are, but sometimes don't like the choices you make.

DREAM

Think of all the things you've accomplished and imagine the person you'd like to become.
