How to keep out of trouble! (A guide for teens)

Follow this guide!

Do what your parents expect of you!

Parents can seem annoying, and like they do not know any thing but they have been there before you!

They give you things to do to teach you.

They give your rules to protect you.

They give you advice to help you, not to hurt you!

You many not understand now but it is very easy to stay out of trouble!

Humble yourself and just do what your told to do! Your freedom will come! This is not forever!

Don't try to impress your friends, you will not even know them after high school! (most of the time)

Do your school work!

Your grades are your future to living a comfortable life!

Work hard now, and then you will reap the benefits!

Please just do these things and you will so prosper.

Teens, life is so short, yet you may not think so! Work hard now so your life will be easier later!

Go to your parents for advice! They know things believe it or not!

I am only twenty-six, and I still go to my parents for help!

My story on what happen to me when I was a teen!

I got mixed up in the wrong crowd.

I went from a straight A student to dropping out of school!

I did drugs and caused myself much harm, I almost died!

I could have went to prison for the things I did.

Prison is not a place for anyone like you, but it CAN happen!

Now, I am a mother of four living on welfare and trying to make a living.

I am paying the price for not doing what was right.

I don't ever have free time, I am even writing this article in a hurry.

Please just listen to your parents, go to school, and stay out of trouble.

Your parents have taught you right from wrong.

We all make mistakes, but learn from them now, and don't make life affecting mistakes!

I pray that you will find your way throught this troubling and hard time of growth!

May you prosper and live a fulfilling life, which all starts for you right now!

So, what decisions are you going to make today? That will affect the rest of your life!

Don't waste time with the now, it is time to think of your future!

Thank you for taking time out of your busy day to read my article, I hope it will change your decisions, and make your life a very pleasant one!

Stay out of trouble and remember that today will affect the rest of your life.

Teens, this is the most important time in your life!

So choose your dusty roads well, for the paved road is for the weak!
