How does highschool play into the social lives of FRENCH teenagers?

I know that in America and maybe other places, schools play a big part in the social lives..there are sports games and big dances.


In France, are there activities relating to the school that teenagers do? Or is it more like..school is just school and the teenagers do things outside of school for fun (if so, any specifics?).





Thank you!How does highschool play into the social lives of FRENCH teenagers?
Where on the map is such a France??

Is it likely for teenagers to get breast cancer ?

I've been reading up on this subject, and in most cases it explains about lumps on the outer sides of your breasts nearer the armpit, but the lump i've found recently was under the outer nipple. I'm really scared that it's breast cancer, although i'm aware it's more likely to be a cyst. Is it more likely to be breast cancer because its under the nipple ?Is it likely for teenagers to get breast cancer ?
No, it is extremely unlikely. Your chances of having breast cancer are almost zero. It is extremely rare for a teenager to have breast cancer - it's a disease largely associated with ageing, and 80% of people diagnosed with it are over 50.





Even in adult women, most breast lumps are not cancerous





It is likely to be hormonal, or it may be a cyst. But it's very, very unlikely to be cancer.





See your doctor and put your mind at rest.Is it likely for teenagers to get breast cancer ?
it is unlikely that you have breast cancer. get it checked out if your really worried, but i wouldnt worry too much.


i do the same thing to myself, i notice some minor thing


and have these thoughts running thru my mind..could it be this? could it be that?


ask a doctor, but its not likely you have cancer
it's highly unlikely in women under 40. your at a higher risk if its in your family. like the fist person says the pill can increase your chances but not by much at all. most women usually find lumps the size of a golf ball, that might put your mind at ease. but if your worried about anything like that just go to your doctor. don't worry about it though the stress of worry can make you over think a situation.
Unlikely. What you can do: avoid too small Bra's, avoid breast piercing, avoid the ';Pill';. Do exercise containing movement of your arms.

Putt putt golf, sewing/designing your own clothes, clothing swaps/fashion show with your friends, thrift shopping, bike riding, make homemade ice cream, rent bad movies, go to all ages music shows, fly kites in the park, go to a public pool, visit the dogs and cats at the animal shelter, work on halloween costumes, learn instruments and start a garage band, etc.





I second the ghost hunting idea someone had. And there's always gravestone rubbings (with paper and crayons).
drive ins they are cheaper than regular moveis and you get to watch to of them...








if you live by teh ocean or a lake.. the beach and swimming and what not.. night swmming is fun...





video game parties.....





ghost hunting.. ( look up haunted places in your town.... every town has them... and go ghost hunting....
Walking places is cool... you'd be surprised at the different places you end up. Also, try searching online for fairs near your hometown. Since it's autumn, there are a lot of cool craft fairs and festivals that are usually held around the country. You can drive to one and look around... you might have to pay to get in, but for some, you don't.





Do you live near a mountain by any chance? Take a road trip and go for a hike. :)
Watch tv, dvds, play board games, watch youtube videos!!


Read a book, do homework with your friends if you want, and talk about stuff





Go here:

[i know it;s not summer, but you can still do most of the things listed.]
The mall is always a good choice, you don't necessarily even have to pay any money while you are there. The beach is always a fun place to go. It all depends on the weather, but you can even go there at night too.
When I was in high school, my friends and I would get together and play cards for HOURS! It may sound boring, but it was a blast. Also, we would get together and go play bingo with the senior citizens. Again, sounds boring but was a lot of fun...even when we were sober!
How about homework? Practicing a musical instrument? Reading books?
ride around bumping lil wayne smoking california cronic sippin on sizzuRp with two black people from across the street.
go to like football games, um like haunted houses, concerts, shopping stuff like that
you could always go to a themepark, cinema or every one over to wathch a film get some microwaveable pop corn
Talk real loud, poke fun at people and skinny dip..lol

Ok, so i have Sydney family friends coming down. and the weather might be bad tomorrow so what could we go and see?





ages 13-16 [plus parents]What are good places to go in melbourne, Australia for teenagers?
I love the Melbourne Aquarium! You could take them to DFO or Harbour Town, or if the weather is nice you could take them out to Sovereign Hill in Ballarat.What are good places to go in melbourne, Australia for teenagers?
Spend a moment checking out ';Volume'; (see link), but otherwise be prepared to go to indoor venues if concerned about the weather.





I think the worse weather may come more from Wednesday on, but with Melbourne who really knows!
Take them to the city! Go to China town, Little ittaly, the main street, the parks or why not even see a show!

Why do parents encourage Teenagers to believe in Santa Claus?

Why do parents encourage teenagers who now know that santa isn't real, to still belive in him despite the fact that they themselves know that santa isn't real?Why do parents encourage Teenagers to believe in Santa Claus?
From the moment I found out, my mother encouraged me to ';play along'; for the sake of Christmas spirit. She never forced me to believe in a falsehood, per say, but encouraged me to find the magic in it. She explained it in this way when I was younger, and it was nice to keep the spirit alive...she told me the story of the real St. Nicholas and how he would go around in his little town and fill the childrens' shoes with goodies every year in celebration of the occasion. When he passed away, the parents of the town carried on the tradition in honor of the kindness and good hearted spirit that he was. It's nice for a teenager to be able to grasp and hold onto a tradition based on unselfishness and goodness. That's how I always saw it anyhow.Why do parents encourage Teenagers to believe in Santa Claus?
I think it is probably a few reasons. Maybe they dont wont them to spoil it for little children because my family has friends who are just like my litle babies the oldest is only two years younger than me and still believes but they love christmas and i think that it helps because if they just say santa isnt real there is no dought in my mind that they would tell someone. also they probably want kids to behave better.
'if you're good you get presents' - keeps the kids quiet.





same as:





'if you're good you get to go to heaven'. keeps the adults quiet.





same control mechanism just a different age range. same level of gullibility (a little more shameful for the adults, because... well, they're adults and should know better).
I'm a teenager and I still ';believe'; in Santa even though I know it's my mom putting the Wii under the tree because it makes me feel childish. Not the immature childish, but the ';haha I'm not a grown up yet and I don't have responsibilities'; childish. It makes me feel good!
My mom used to used Santa to make us believe that we need to be behaved and good to get what we want for Xmas and it seems effective... besides we got what we want for Xmas then.. And I think I'll do the same with my Kids but of course if they get older and ask if its true then I'll just tell them
Tradition and keep christmas in your heart not just your pocketbook. commerciallism of christmas seems so real! that Belief keeps it FUN! Christmas is spiritual but tradition makes it FUN! it's easier to share FUN! isn't it... I'm 50 years old and still believe in Santa Claus don't you a devine person brings things of Happiness more sadness! doesn't make heart all warm inside if you share with others JOY! and Warm feelings!


Remember some us don't have great days everyday there is just one day everyone can share! Christmas!
becuase when they were younger their parents thought to believe in Santa Claus and so they tell the same to their children
ahaha I've never heard of any parent encouraging their TEENS to believe in santa claus, thats just insanity!
I think they do it so the child will behave :/
So they don't ruin it for younger siblings?
To keep it fun. My eight year old has doubts but I told him to act like he beleives so that it would be more fun.

Why do you think teenagers start smoking and drinking alcohol as a small age? what is the reasons behind it?

What is there to be poved? that they became adults and responsible? or is it the bad influence advertsisment and irresponsible older adults have on them?Why do you think teenagers start smoking and drinking alcohol as a small age? what is the reasons behind it?
I'm in my late teens and I don't do drugs





or drink, or smoke. I think it's the media





that is driving a great deal of teens up the wall.





It doesn't mean you can't have fun it just means





you shouldn't lose yourself. I think the environment





when I was in my earlier teens (12-15) is different





from today, It's very very wild out there it's shocking





to hear 12 yearolds talking about being pregnant!Why do you think teenagers start smoking and drinking alcohol as a small age? what is the reasons behind it?
Guess, They are aping us older folks,who are about as dumb

So they can look Cool in front of their friends. They don't look cool to me, they look ';Stupid';.
We have a personal ego and a social ego, or better to say, we gain pride from our actions, and then from the actions of others based on our actions. Yea a bit long winded but it shows how much were social creatures. This is both a reflect of independence, human curiousity, and the need to impress our peers, compounded by the social environment only giving us these as outlets for this. It is the same path our parents took thou, which is the important thing to understand, that all functioning adults go thru this phase of muturation. It could almost be seen as a sign of faster growth the earlier this occurs. Its an important phase to where alot of different issues we well deal with for the rest of our lives come to head. Problems only occur if we don't have parents that are welling to talk to us about it, relate their experiences, and show other paths of belonging.
Its because its illegal it isnt as fun when its legal.
Well, personally, it was the curiosity. I tried--and I didn't like it. It's as simple as that. Everyone, for the most part, is going to try--whether it's due to peer pressure, boredom, or just curiosity. Why people continue? That's a different question. Unfortunately, I have no answer...because, you don't have to keep doing it...and there is no reason to.
Most people recall their 1st drink being given to them by an adult or of them taking a drink from their parent's glass when the parent wasn't looking when they were very small...like 4-5y.o.





At that time they want to be like their parents. They may steal drinks from their parent's stock of alcohol as they grow older.





As they get older, there is peer pressure to drink %26amp; also the attraction of the forbidden.





In families that use alcohol in religious rituals as children are growing up, the children are less likely to drink to excess when they get older.
Rebellion. I think that once kids get to a certain age they want to prove that they can make their own decisions (bad or not). I think it also has something to do with taboos. They want to prove to themselves that they can do something they have been told not to do.





I was a teenager once too, but then I grew up and realized when my mother told me I didn't know anything yet she was right.
Children with many activities seem to be the ones who don't have time for all that stuff. The ones who just go to school and come home after it is done and their parents are at work, when they get home, have idle minds. And an idle mind is the worst state to be in because you are bored and you find things that will get you into trouble because it gets you attention. It may not be the attention you want to get but it is still attention. Parents need to talk to their children at a small age and drill it into their heads what they expect from their children, to include how to recognize the bad from the good. Roll play and get them experienced to say no to the bad and yes to the good. You went through peer pressure and theirs is always greater but if you prepare them they will have no problem making the right decision because they know what you would rather have them do.
It's called peer pressure...





that's about it.... it may be indirect pressure... but there is always a desire to fit in with a group...





and lets face it.. getting drunk and stoned is way more fun than playing basketball...
that`s a situation when a child feels like to be burden like somwaht or get influenced by a popular smoker, alchoholic person.


that may be bcoz of the neglegence of the family , nervousness , or due to unsureness(modest).


that may be also bcoz of lack of patience.


this comes under child deliquency or juvinille deliquency.


right now in india there are 92 deliquent home.


they r really very helpfull to such children and help them to get into right path.
i think its the older adults.. also TV .. yea TV is the main reason i think... keep your children away from it!! lol
Curious. We can never drink beer so we want to know what it tastes like and what it does. Same with other stuff.
They probably want to act older. They don't realize that harm can be done from their actions.





Some parents allow their kids to drink when young. So they are setting a bad example. I'm sure advertising has a lot to do with it.
peer pressure and boredom stress in their life and plain just playing follow the leader.
all of the above.........peer pressure, bad influences, etc.
to try to be older than they really are
