"At Risk" is that really defining a group of teens so far from our own? "Crisis" teens, again is this classification really accurately classifing teens. The deeper I look into it, I think that most all teens can be called "at risk" and "crisis" teens. It appears to me that all teens are "at risk" for something. They are "at risk" to be offered drugs and alcohol, then to take part in drugs and alcolhol and other questionable activities. All teens are "at risk" of becoming pregnant or making someone pregnant. Many teens are just one paycheck away from being homeless. in America today I guess it seems that all teens are "at risk." Now what classifies a crisis? My cousin often has a crisis when she can not find the right shoes to wear to school. One day in high school my friend told me she was pregnant. That in itself being a crisis, I also had a crisis of my own. I could hardly deal with that, I did not know what to do for her. I had another crisis when my dear friend told me that she and a friend were going to make brownies with "weed" in them. That was a huge crisis for me at 15. I did not know what to do. Do I tell my mom and loose a friend, or do I just play cool and let all my friends get high. After telling my mom there was nothing she could do anyway. Crisis was all over the place.
