As we are growing up, we really need advice from adults. Here are three people talking about their experience.

Jasper, 26, actor

You're not alone.

    Sometimes when you're a teenager, you feel as if you're all alone and there's  you can talk to. Do you know twenty to thirty percent of teenagers in the US have a hard   going through the period? They feel lonely and sad. I think life is so much easier if you  your troubles with others. I regret that I didn't take the advice when someone gave it to me.

Steve, 27, teacher

Your teachers only want what's best for you.

    When I was in school, I never thought I'd become a teacher. I acted badly in class, and I feel about that now. I love my job and I know how challenging it is, so I hope kids can show their teachers more respect (尊敬). I hope kids can  that teachers push them to do their best and not just to give them a hard time.

Anna, 29, doctor

Money doesn't grow on trees.

    When I was a teenager, I never learned to save money. I just spent it! My parents gave me everything I wanted, but I realize now they spent little  themselves. Now I wish I knew more about planning my money, and I am not the only one! It seems that today's teenagers know about money planning even less    me years ago. I do wish they could learn about it earlier.
