What is the importanceof kids/teens getting 9 hours of sleep?
Q. I heard that kids/teens need 9-12 hours of sleep at night for their brain to function correctly the next day. What does the brain need to do? What is the importance of this? I know that I rarely don't get that much sleep at night, I'm in Junior High, and I seem to be able to function the next day. Just wondering... Thanks! I meant that I rarely get that much sleep, not that I rarely 'dont' get that much sleep...

A. An average teenager needs about 8.5-9.25 hours of sleep per day. As long as you are feeling alert during the day and not drowsy, you don't really have to worry about it. Some people are long sleepers and some people are short sleepers, so there is no real standard.

Do you think a soap opera will cast kids and teens?
Q. I don't know, but my mom says that if I audition for a soap opera, I won't be cast because soap operas usually have young adults. (people in their twenties) If I'm a kid/teen do you think they'll hire me?

A. Most soaps have a small number of very young actors. It all depends on your ability to show them how much THEY need YOU!. Not the other way around. Don't be cocky, but definitely be confident. How old are you? I would look toward soaps that have babies or young children that may need to go through some aging here soon. It won't hurt. If you have the talent, you will be amazed at what you will be blessed with. Just be careful out there. I wish you all the best.

A. Simply put, it's unprofessional. If you're at a school function, you should be acting as a teacher first. It's acceptable for students to see that you have a spouse, but it's not necessary for them to see that you're great at swapping gum. Kids see enough PDA on television for them to get a good dose of affection and "relate" to it. They don't need to see teachers doing it. It's not necessary. If you're out in public and KNOW a student is around, you should use discretion.

Do You Think Teens and kids should be sheltered and be supervised on everything?

Do you think teens and kids are losing their social skills ?
Q. I have no opinion on this, I just heard someone say this because kids and teens spend masses of time on the internet, my space, face book, texting etc, has led to increasing violence in schools, or humiliations at parties (and it is sent to one another on their phones / posted on youtube etc). When I say losing social skills i mean perhaps they lack empathy from lack of face to face interactions, which makes them more prone to violence and humiliating others for fun... What do you think?

Asked by tgggiraffe - Sat Feb 2 14:10:40 2008 - - 11 Answers - 1 Comments
A. Because it sounds like you are really trying to reach out and educate others, why not invent a board game - like monopoly, call it something like "The race for Climate Stability." From there, you will have to do a little research on how to market and sell your game. Another thing you can do is write articles and submit them to your local civic association for publication in their newsletter. It can include simple things that everyone can do to make a difference (e.g. not bagging their leaves but mulching them instead) or explaining exactly what things should or should not go in the recycle bin, etc. Your question is breath of fresh air. I am so glad to hear when the younger generation gets actively involved in this issue.

What outdoor recreational equipment is best to buy for kids/teens?
Q. We live in a very rural area where city parks or playgrounds, skating rinks or public pools are really at a minimum, and have an older young-adult son who as a teenager got into some trouble here, but the new family plan to prevent this with the current teenager is this: if we have "cool stuff" for our son and his friends to do HERE, and this is the "hang out", we'll know where our kid is, who he is with and what he is doing AND we'll provide him with fun things to do so he isn't bored and likely to get into trouble. We've considered a small pool as we all love swimming, he wants to save his own money and buy a hot tub (as well as the wiring to power it - thoughtful young man!), I thought maybe a trampoline and he isn't especially fond of… [cont.]

A. A pool would be very expensive. If you want something you can set up straight away you could go for a Basketball hoop. A fort is probably a bit childish, but you could get him involved in building one for the younger children. If he likes to make things, perhaps he could have his own workshop. If you have alot of land aven something like a small beach volley ball court or soccer goal at one end of the back yard. Cricket pitch is another idea.

A. My elder two used to sometimes and I let them get on with it as they were evenly matched - then afterwards they were the best of friends again.I just made them go outside to fight so I couldn't see it - and woe betide them if they tore their clothes or got blood on them!When it came to the younger ones and one of them ffighting I put a stop to it - but if the younger had provoked the elder *he* came across my lap not the elder one as he had hoped for after calling me to intervene!
