Turns out TX and FL teens had a MUCH better year than CA teens—just by luck of the draw, where their families happen to live.
Yeah and teens don’t really want to be at home so much either. They like being out and about, with action and lots of activity and other teens. The times last year when CA banned even outdoor dining was the worst. That meant there was just nowhere to go and nothing to do, main street closed to hanging out, especially if other families were “isolating.”
The families of teens who were willing to get together in garages and outdoor firepits and—gasp!—even indoors found each other.
I think movie theaters will be opening at 25% in a couple of weeks in my area, I hope. Not for me, but for the teens.
I can’t imagine. My teens did ok during the first month. Then they started hanging out with other teens in the neighborhood. Two of my youngest children played ball all summer. When school was close to resuming, my band child had a modified band camp. It was different, but the teens found a way to have fun with it. And they kept trying to perform their full show to no avail. It was very patriotic, and a storm stopped the show time and time again. I should’ve known what was coming for our country. Anywho, our teens have observed the insanity of the communists.
