New Year... New Series for MNl/TRL

Hope you guys (used in the totally non-gender specific way) had a great vacation, and a great start to the new year. If you read the Informer JR/SR you know that I'm looking for some help with the next topic we tackle mid-week.

Here's the topic so far: Typical Teenage Traps

Picture a teen stuck in a mouse trap, one of those snap jobs, not the sticky kind... and answer this question:

"What are some common things that trap teens? Things you get caught in and really mess up who you are?"

Now I'm not talking the typical answers like "drugs", or "booze" or "sex"... I'm talking more character traits... like arrogance- the "I can do whatever I want" mentality. Catch my drift? See what I'm peepin' "G"? Are you picking up what I'm laying down? Are you mowing what I'm growing?
