What is a Better Place for Teenagers


            There is a proverb that "Teenagers are like a sharp knife." It means that they are very sensative emotionally, and are not matured completely yet. The teen years are a period of growth for an individual. As a teenager, I had limitations for my behaviors and the rule for girls was strick. .
             Pipher says, " Sex was probably my most confusing problem."(489) and "We were told that sex would ruin our lives and reputations." (490) As a teenager, Pipher was uneducated about sex, so under this condition, whenever she saw a romance magazine and heard dirth jokes or songs which were expressed sexual implication, this made her more confusing to think about sex. Likewise, I also had not sufficient knowledge about sex. Most junior hing schools were not a co-educational school, so girls did not have an opportunity to meet boys in particular. It was not a common thing to have a boyfriend, and until now. People concern about female's virginal purioty a lot in my country. Our school and parents did not tell about sex much, and I rarely informed about sex, so when I saw a sex scene in movie, I was very astonished and felt as if I lived in a different world. .
             Pipher listened to her parents well. If her parents did not allow her to watch a movie which was too violent, she listened them, and after school, Pipher worked for her mother at her clinic. I also did not have much toubles with my parents, and our family was very harmony. My mother just sometimes scolded to me because of my clothing style or behavior. My mother wanted to me to act quietly and gently. She stressed famininity,so except these things, I rarely bad a problem with my parents. .
             Pipher said, "Teenage boys had a difficult time finding alcohol."(487) and "We signed pledges that we would never drink or smoke." In contrast, it was not difficult to get alcohol for teenagers during my adolescene, and some girls in our school smoked and drunk with their friends and acted like an adult.
