Stress is more common in teens, I beieve, because everyone is trying to get good grades, and fit in at school. 

# data[].attributes.body
It's aggravating that my parents don't understand how stressfull school is. They add to the stress by making me do things because they work and school isnt work

Stress is something that is common among many teens. Many teens deal with this stress with sports, which I think is a good way, while others have hobbies.

# data[].attributes.body
Adults tend to have high expectations for teens, even as they openly criticize the same teens. Teens are bound to feel stressed and depressed.

# data[].attributes.body
It is easier for women to become more stressed with school because men have more academic opportunities such as sport scholarships.

# data[].attributes.body
Stress is needed in order to succeed; it gives one a motivation to try harder. Although, too much stress is harmfull.

# data[].attributes.body
It's true--us teens get stressed often. Whether it be teen-drama or academic overburden, it happens. Personally, if I ever get stressed, it's due to schoolwork.

# data[].attributes.body
school does causes stress, teachers dont always understand thet fact the we have other classes to do well on.

# data[].attributes.body
i think that some times school does cause stress. because teachers give out alot of homework without thinking that we also have other things to in other classes

# data[].attributes.body
I think that practicing a sport no matter what it is will help a teen be healthier. Not only that but it helps their self esteem and makes them confident.

# data[].attributes.body
There are two types of stress, the good kind and the bad kind. Good kind of stress helps us strive for what we want, but bad stess, it might bring us down.

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think it's surprising that teens from middle-income are stressed. All teens are stressed at some point, and I don't believe it's just school causing it.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe stress is the number one factor in the mis behavior and laziness of this generation. Stress, however, is optional.You could always just do the school 

# data[].attributes.body
Stress is part of everyones life, age or gender does not matter. Stress is going to be part of our lives forever so we should learn to manage it.

# data[].attributes.body
No one likes a lot of stress, but it's necessary if s/he wants to be successful. I'd rather have more stress if it meant that I was secure in my life.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that stress is very common in teenagers and young adults. In my opinion, school and economic issues are the main causes of stress.

# data[].attributes.body
I do believe the biggest stress for teenagers is school because we all want a better future for ourselves and most of the time it's a long road ahead of us.

Cell phone laws should be passed in the USA. Cell phones has much to do with cause of death. The car death rate is at its highest peak in this centry.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that teens and adults should not be using their cell phones while driving because any of them can cause an accident.

# data[].attributes.body
 Teens already have brains hardwired for risk-taking. Put them behind a two ton, metal car and they're deadly. Cell phones are an unneeded distraction.

# data[].attributes.body
Anyone who thinks texting and talking on the phone while driving is okay should not have a license no matter how good you are at driving it is too dangerous.

# data[].attributes.body
People shouldn't have to worry about getting hit by another car just because someone feels the need to text or talk while driving. It should be banned. 

# data[].attributes.body
Using handheld devisees while driving should be illegal because it distracts one from the road, puting others and one's life at risk.

Texting While Driving Caught on Tape (Today Show)

# data[].attributes.body
I'm on board with states banning texting while driving. Teens die because of texting as they drive.They should have a passenger text for them to avoid death.

# data[].attributes.body
Using cell phones while driving is very dangerous to yourself and everyone around you. By making these new laws, I believe many innocent lives will be saved. 

# data[].attributes.body
I agree with banning cell phones while driving. Anything that increases the safety of drivers is A-OK with me. If you need to talk, use a hands-free device.

# data[].attributes.body
I strongly believe that all states should have some sort of cell phone law. If teens get caught driving while texting, their license should be suspended. 

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that bans on phones while driving is a good way to keep people safe. I was surprised that phone laws for bus drivers are not in effect in all states.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that talking or any use of your cell phone should be banned only for the safety of the drivers, and others around them. New drivers are more at risk.

# data[].attributes.body
As a teen, it is often difficult to avoid the temptation of a cell phone. Banning the use of them and providing consequences creates a safer environment.

# data[].attributes.body
Texting is far worse than talking on a cellphone while driving, yet only two states have banned bus drivers from texting while nine have banned talking.

# data[].attributes.body
 Texting and talking on the phone is very distracting and drivers should be focused on the road. One wrong turn and it can be the end of an innocent person.

# data[].attributes.body
Use of cell phones while driving should be banned. I see people driving recklessly while talking on the phone or texting all the time. 

# data[].attributes.body
The use of cellphones in the car should be banned in all states because of the dangers it can cause. It won't kill anyone to put their phone down while driving.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that banning the use of cellphones while driving is necessary, especially in the busy world we live in.The law should be stricter and in all the states.

# data[].attributes.body
Banning texting in every state should be done because most accidents are caused by that. Even though not everyone listens, some percent of people will.

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that sports are great for ones health and give you self-satisfaction but I don't find them neccesary to achieve those results

# data[].attributes.body
Students, once in sports feel the sense of accomplishment. They feel healthier and have a clear headed mind. Therefore they feel more satisfied in life.

# data[].attributes.body
Sports are a good outlet for some people, but they shouldn't be forced on teens. Everyone should be healthy, but sports are only one method.

# data[].attributes.body
Although playing a sport takes a lot of time and effort, I truly believe that taking up physical activities will help enhance any teen's happiness in life. 

# data[].attributes.body
Joining a sport is not only a good way to stay fit and healthy, but it also sometimes helps build a good reputation in school.

# data[].attributes.body
One thing that bothers me so much is the fact that if you join a sport sometimes, but not always people label you or categorize  you based on the sport you do.

# data[].attributes.body
Sports can affect a teen's life but that doesn't neccessarily mean that kids not involved in sports can't have one either.

# data[].attributes.body
i think that all kids should do or practice a sport, this would also make them feel sure about there abilities, although it depends on the teen.

# data[].attributes.body
Many teens who play sports are more of the time healthier and more enabled to do things. Even if you dont play sports you also can be as  healthy as others. 

# data[].attributes.body
Sports should be part of everyone's life. Not only do they help keep the body healthy, but they also help people interact with one another. 

# data[].attributes.body
Not only teenagers, but also everyone who is active, is more likely to be healthy, with the ability to think clear and feel satisfied about themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
Playing a sport might give self-satisfaction but doing other activities such as clubs and organizations can also make you feel accomplished.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that when kids play sports they tend to do better in school. They need to keep their grades up for sports and it just modivates them to try harder.

# data[].attributes.body
 The main reason sports and clubs help one feel better is that anytime one accomplishes a goal, it boosts one’s self-esteem. This is why people should be active

# data[].attributes.body
Sports help teens prepare for the future. Sports force you to manage your time. They also allow you to gain social skills needed to be successful person. 

# data[].attributes.body
When you exercise, endorphins, which create the feeling of "happiness," are sent to the brain. Sports don't necessarily make kids happy; it's the exercise.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that playing sports does help teens. It gives them excerise, and causes them to eat healthy. Needing good grades to play, it makes them a better student

# data[].attributes.body
I bealive playing sports is not the only way to gain self-satisfaction. There are other activities one can do to be social and challanged.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that sports are great stress relievers. When one is part of a sports team, they learn responsibility and team work, along with time management skills. 

# data[].attributes.body
I think students should take sports because it gives them something to do to keep them, well most, out of trouble.

# data[].attributes.body
Doing physical things like dance and aerobic exercises can help you relax and let go of all that stress from being a teenager.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe that not only students but everyone can have  an increase in mood, ability, and outlook on life with a good amount of physical sport.

# data[].attributes.body
When a teen enjoys playing a sport, he or she will feel self-satisfied, but if he or she dislikes sports, he or she will not feel self-satisfaction.

# data[].attributes.body
It is common sense that playing outside with friends is healthy. I'm not sure why researchers are studying this, rather than looking for a cure for cancer.

# data[].attributes.body
Playing sports might give self-satisfaction and health, but not being in one does not make you less successful in school or social life. It depends on the teen.

# data[].attributes.body
Students should take a sport because when doing some type of aerobic exercise, their muscles and brain recieve oxygen and therefore, they think clearer.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe things in life increase in value exponentially when you are forced to earn them. This is the case with sports. You simpley feel more accomplished.

College tuition is very high, and in today's economy family's are having to watch their money. Students may be discouraged by the price and not even try to go.

# data[].attributes.body
College tuition is very high and in today's economy, money is not easy to come by. Students may be dscouraged by this "unreachable" amount and give up. 

# data[].attributes.body
I don't think costs should de a big factor in deciding whether to go to college or not. Too many optins are availible for that type of thinking. 

# data[].attributes.body
The expenses involved in going to college shouldn't stop a teen from getting an education. If they have the desire to learn, they should have a way to do so.

# data[].attributes.body
Although the cost are much higher than they use to be there is still tons of money in scholarships students just have to take the time to complete the forms.

# data[].attributes.body
College is in deed expensive. Most of the childs parents cant afford it therefore kids have to work for their education and save up. To get a high education. 

# data[].attributes.body
I think kids not going to school because of the expenses is an excuse for some. Some kids are just to lazy to apply for scholarships, but they can go to school.

# data[].attributes.body
Getting a college education is vital in one's pursuit of happiness. You shouldn't skimp on education, because education opens all kinds of high-paying doors.

# data[].attributes.body
I personally think that the cost for college is ridiculous. One has to pay high fees to get in and then even more for books, room and board and materials.

# data[].attributes.body
Although the cost of a college education has sky-rocketed in recent years, people should try their best to afford it in order to get as far as possible in life.

# data[].attributes.body
Teenagers should take the responsibility to earn good grades so they could get scholarships to be able to attend college cheaply.

# data[].attributes.body
College is harder for teens to go to these days. It's a lot more expensive. I know i don't see myself going to a top tier college because of the  high cost.

# data[].attributes.body
If teenagers really want to attend college cheaply they will earn the right to go by getting good grades.

# data[].attributes.body
The cost of college has increased resulting in less teenagers graduating from high school going to college.  Teens think that college isn't worth spending on.

# data[].attributes.body
 It seems unfair that so much money is asked from younge adults who may only have their parents as a financial resourse, especially in these hard economic times

# data[].attributes.body
Colleges and universities should consider decreasing costs so the percentage of teens not wanting to go to college could also decrease.

# data[].attributes.body
i believe that students should not worry about the price of college, because of plentiful finanicial aid.

# data[].attributes.body
It doesn't matter if you make a plan to pay for college. Prices will still be high. Government should focus on lowering the cost of higher education for teens.

# data[].attributes.body
Sometimes all a student need to go to collage and get a degree, which is a very important tool to succeed in today's world, is their parent's support.

# data[].attributes.body
Because of the circumstances teens face with college today, they have realized the importance of saving money, planning ahead and receiving a higher education.

# data[].attributes.body
Although paying for college on one's own has become increasingly more difficult, scholarships and loans are still available for those who seek them.

# data[].attributes.body
It is up to teens to be aware that college will cost
a lot of money. It should be every teens goal to obtain a scholarship; they help with college tuitions.

# data[].attributes.body
Teens are giving up going to college due to having no money. Today it's hard to get a job due to the hard economy. So teens just give up on education.

# data[].attributes.body
I think that what the studies show is true because many teens don't have enough money to pay for college so they quit. Especially those with low income families
