Ya, ya, the teen years. How did we ever make it through them. Sadly, not all of us did. Stupidity does claim some along the way. I can think of a number of friends who never made it to their twenties because of some preventable accident or another - mostly irresponsible behavior with cars or motorcycles, some from drinking or drugs. There are a lot of perils out there and kids just don't always have the tools to keep them safe. That's why they are kids.
