Letter to my future teenage child

Letter to my Future Teenage Child

March 2007

Hello, my darling teenager!

You can't imagine how happy you are and you still cant understand or see your happiness.

This age is amazing! On the one hand you are a child, on the other hand – not any more.

You can make mistakes but others will understand and forgive you…But now you can see and understand that things are not so easy as it seemed to you in your childhood.
Now you need to make important decisions, first of all, whom you would like to be in this life. You must choose what your values will be.

The life period you are living in now is sketch of your whole future. You must understand yourself and people around you – and find harmony.
There are many people who can help you and first of all it's me, your mother. I love you more than you imagine, wherever you will ever be, know that I am always with you, in happy or difficult time. I do not want to interfere with your choice. Your happiness is the main thing for me. Your joy is my joy, your trouble is my trouble.
The only wish I have to you is to find your own way in this life and not to regret about your choice.

Your loving mother

Arina

To: my teenager Child

Hello my child:

I am your father and the reason that I am addressing this letter to you is to warn you and help you take the right paths in life so you can be a successful person and healthier.

First of all you will always get a temptation in this age, like smoking, drinking, and being with girls. These 3 issues are not for you to take them lightly, you should really take them in consideration because if you smoke, you can become addicted and be unhealthy, if you drink a lot you will waste all of your money and if you have sexual relations with a girl, there is a chance that you can get a disease or her to be pregnant. What I just said isn’t meant to scare you, they are just preventions that you should take in consideration for your life to be better.

with love your dad,

Dear future child,

Whatever gender you are, I hope that you don't disappoint me. Don't get in trouble (as long as I don't know it). I hope that you do as much good as you and I and your mother want you to do until you're 21, and then you can do whatever. I will not make you do things that you don't want to do, but if I feel it's best for the general public, I might make you do at least one thing. Don't sweat it. I have done the things you will probably do, but don't tell me until you have graduated from college! Remember the golden rule: Be as mean to the person as they are
mean to you.

Love, Chris

Dear teenager,

It's a great thing to be a teenager, so enjoy yourself. Just make sure that you always do what adults tell you to. You should always respect them, even though sometimes it seems like you know more than them. Remember, they have been here longer than you and they do know more, even though it might not seem that way. One day you might see
what it's like to not be listened to by your kids. It's not really that fun to be ignored and be talked back to when you're the authority figure out of the two of you. Other than that, there's not much stuff to tell you about being
a teenager. Hopefully you will enjoy your life as a teenager. As long as you do what I just said, then you'll be successful.

Sincerely,

Marissa

Dear Teenager,
Being a teen is awesome (or whatever you future teens say now-a-days). I'm only twelve, but close enough. I can still tell you what it is like. First of all, it seems there is a lot of gossiping that goes on, if you are a girl. There can be gossip when you are a boy too, but I have to admit it is mostly girls. And even with all the gossip that goes on, you should try not to gossip yourself. Gossip can hurt others along with yourself, and it can ruin relationships (whether
it is with friends or a boyfriend/girlfriend). Also there are a lot of school activities, try not to overwhelm yourself
with every activity in the school. It can affect your sleep habits and your relationships. Sleeping is an important part of your life. It is what helps you function, and it helps you remember things. When you sleep, everything that you learn that day gets programmed into your head. When you're always doing other things all the time, you have
almost no time for your friends, family, and/or boyfriend/girlfriends. So take my advice and don't do a ton of school activities; it consumes time and life. I think that is all you need to know, good luck as a teen!

Letter to My Future Son or Daughter (Which I May or May Not Have)

Dear future child (which I might or might not have), I hope that you don't become the next white rapper, or even like rap at all. I also hope that you do unto others as you want them to do unto you-or do to them what they've got coming. I hope that you don't break the law, unless it is an un-just law that violates your constitutional
rights. I hope that you never get a job serving the government unless you move to Canada first.

Love,
Brendan

Dear my teenage child (who is the bomb because you are related to me), There are a few things that I want you to know. First, you should be a jock like me and wear jockish clothing because they are so comfortable. Another thing that I want to tell you is to be yourself. Even if you think wearing clothing that is uncomfortable and wearing makeup (and mini-skirts and leggings or whatever is in style) will make you popular, well it might, but I don't think you will be happy. No matter what you do or look like, someone else will accept you for it, so just be yourself. MAKE SURE YOU PLAY SOCCER!!!!!!

Bye,
Katie

Letter to My Teenage Daughter
(I am NOT having a teenage daughter btw)

Dear future teenage daughter, I think you should know that even if someone is cool and popular, if they want you to do something that you don't want to do, then they are not really a good friend.
