![]() "cavelamb himself" wrote My girl friend's 15 year old daughter is like that. She needs LOTS of entertainment too. Nearly impossible to have a non-drama day. This seems to be more a part of the normal, for today's youth. Think of it, when you were young. If there was not anything on TV while you were at home, (good chance that there wasn't, with the selection of perhaps 5 channels if you lived near a big city) what did you do to pass the time? You probably entertained yourself. Things I did were to ride a bike around the neighborhood, dig another extension to my tunnels out in the woods, build a blanket fort (smaller years) read a book, tear something apart and put it back together again, (the last part was optional g) play with your toys, go roller skating, ....... and the list goes on. Now most things for the kids to do involve something or someone to entertain them, with possibly hundreds of TV channels, music videos, video games, internet (IM your friends) surf the internet, and so on. What do all or most of the things today involve? Something or someone to ENTERTAIN .....THEM! It also follows for teaching. We have to keep their attention by entertaining them, for them to even begin considering learning something. Not saying that this isn't true with your situation, since I don't know her, but that is somewhat a state of being for a 15 year old, especially the girls, I think. *Especially* the part about the drama! g -- Jim in NC |
