If you are in middle school you're still officially a kid. Adults can tell you what to do. And usually you have to do what they say. But no one can tell you what to believe or what kind of person you will become. Those decisions are up to you.

Here are some choices you are facing or will face:
 * How to complete middle school successfully
 * Getting ready for college starts in middle school
 * Preparing for high school
 * Preparing for college and high school graduation requirements
 * What all students need to do to prepare for an entry level job

Some of you may be dealing with the best way to live your life and/or difficult situations (see how teens wrote poems about many of these situations) in your life or your family such as:
 * Anxiety
 * Behavior
 * Anger Management, Defiance, Getting along with others - Personality Types, Motivation
 * Appearance
 * Bullying
 * Child Abuse
 * Death of Family or Friends
 * Defiance
 * Depression
 * Divorce
 * Domestic Violence
 * Drugs. Find out more about how drugs (includes alcohol and tobacco) affect your mind and body and then make your choice. You will not find anything here telling you not to take drugs.
 * Eating disorders
 * Friends
 * Gangs
 * Homelessness
 * Homosexuality
 * Illegal immigrant
 * Jail
 * Money
 * Principles (values)
 * Relationships
