Glorification of the. teenager
has had '. several . results, all of
them dire. It has unleashed • a
veritable .flood .;of garbage in the
fields 'of entertainment and pub

everybody else who has a finger -

they are enjoying the most ex-
citing, the richest years. 'of their
lives, which is pure crap • It has
played heli with family life„ • be-
cause it has aisured them that
everyone who is' not a teenager
is either 'infantile or an imbecile.'.
Don't ask me for the answers -
I just have the questions- The
Don't think that I am attack-
ing the teenagers, or that 1 have.
a formula for revaihping society.
It's, just that I have, a problem.
I have a 'son• who is 12. Wheal
was' 12 I wanted tobe a cowboy,
Tarzan-of-the-Apes, a great ea-
