Depression - Teen Support Group
Teen depression is marked by persistent sadness, discouragement, loss of self-worth, and loss of interest in usual activities. Depression can be a temporary response to many situations and stresses. Teens may be more susceptible to depression due to the normal maturation process, the stress associated with it, and conflicts with parents as they become more independent.

My story is close to the one about God and Gays, except mine is about interracial relationships. Do you think it is wrong? People say its not right, its in the bible that its not right. But is that true? Why does it matter who you date I dont understand. We are not bothering anyone we are just trying to live our lives. How can you judge someone by who they date? I would love to here your thoughts

well my stepdad is a total racist. he says someone of different color on tv and he cuts them down. he doesnt seem to care that me and my older sis are both 1/5 black. it's coming from my biological father's side so thats probably why. i say date who u want. i plan to and if my stepdad dont like it he doesnt have to see the guy. he can keep his nose out of it lol.

Love is love, as far as I'm concerned. It shouldn't matter to other people who you date, as it's not gonna be them who're in a relationship with your choice. On top of this, discrimination in any form, be it skin colour, nationality, sexuality etc. Is illogical, unjustified, destructive and downright despicable. On the point of God, if God didn't want interracial relationships to happen, why is it that we are attracted to each other? He had a safeguard (not totally effective) where we have a natural dislike of the pheremones of our relatives (supposed to prevent incest, which i have nothing against either by the way), so why not do the same with other races?

no, it says nothing in the bible about inter-racial relationships. it just matters if the person u date is also a Christian. my bf is african-american and he's a Christian we're like 2 peas in a pod!

thanks for your comments. My mom totally hates the fact that my bf is an african american. She has other reasons not to like him but the only thing she ever talks about is he is black. That is why I dont really respect her as far as her telling me what to do. Like she will try to tell me when I can and can't see him but I do it anyway. It would be different if she did this for other reasons but not because he is black. Its wrong and she doesn't even know him.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
