Teen Creed

Don’t let your parents down;

They brought you up.

Be humble enough to obey;

You may give orders someday.

Choose your companions with care;

You become what they are.

Guard your thoughts;

What you think, you are.

Choose only a date

Who would make a good mate.

Be master of your habits;

Or they will master you.

Don’t be a showoff when you drive;

Drive with safety and arrive.

Don’t let the crowd pressure you;

Stand for something

Or you will fall for anything.

Ten Rules Kids Don’t Learn in School

This was forwarded to us and suggested that we share it with you. So we are….

1. Life is not fair. Get used to it. The average teenager uses the phrase “It’s not fair” 86 times a day.

2. The real world won’t care as much about your self-esteem as your school does. This may come as a shock.

3. Sorry, you won’t make $40,000 a year right out of high school. And you won’t be a vice-president either. You may even have to wear a uniform that doesn’t have a designer label.

4. If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss.

5. Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your grandparents had a different word for burger flipping – they called it opportunity.

6. It’s not your parents’ fault if you mess up. You’re responsible. This is the flip side of “It’s my life” and “You’re not my boss.”

7. Before you were born, your parents weren’t boring. They got that way paying your bills and listening to you.

8. Life is not divided into semesters. And you don’t get summers off. Not even spring break. You are expected to show up every day for eight hours, and you don’t get a new life every ten weeks.

9. Wear your safety belt. You will not get a second chance like you did with your school picture retakes.

10. Your school may be “outcome-based,” but life isn’t. In some schools, you’re given as many times as you want to get the answer right. Standards are set low enough to everyone can meet them. This, of course, bears not the slightest resemblance to anything in real life.
