Leading Cause of Death for Teenagers by:Elaine Futrell
LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH FOR TEENAGERSFor decades the American Academy of Pediatrics has reported that the leading cause of death for teenagers, are motor vehicle accidents. Spring break and prom are two of the most deadly seasons, but there is hope.We all know that as much as parents talk to their children, and schools talk to their students, and even pediatricians talk to their patients about the dangers of driving under the influence, it doesn't always sink in. Just as a parent would never think of placing their toddler on the front seat of the car and then drive away thinking all is well just because they instructed the toddler to sit still till they got to where they were going; a parent should never fool themselves into thinking that just because someone told a teenager that driving under the influence could seriously injure or kill them will keep them from doing it "just this once". Unfortunately, what they don't seem to understand, but what we know, is that "just this once" is once too many.So, as a mother who was serious about making sure that her under age drivers did NOT make the possibly fatal mistake of thinking . . . I can handle it . . . Parents worry too muc...

This means that the first step is going to consist of packing up the room and finding a storage space, like a self storage unit, to deposit whatever remains. As noted before, what you plan to do with the room, and what your child will be taking with them after college, will dictate what you do with the larger pieces of furniture. In some instances you can put them in storage, in others, you'll need to leave them be.Another Kid's RoomIf you happen to have a large family, specifically one in which two kids are sharing a room, this decision is often the easiest to make. After all, you've got the room, and it's in one state or another of being furnished, it is only fair that each child get...
