Puma's Tale

How much do you love YOUR friends?!?!?! When you get home, and you do your homework, then ask your parents, (or don't ask them) to see if you can call a friend to see if they can come over and hang out, but your parents say no, that you have other things to do, like study for an up coming final, (Remember, its the end of the year. Finals are coming!) or you could go practice an instrument that you are dragging on, and only playing it because your parents say it makes you think more critically about the world around you. (Its true, instruments do actually do that.) Then you say "NO!" You want to be with your friends!

Well you are both right. It is good that you are playing an instrument, and need to be studying for an up coming final. But it is also good to be with friends! Recent studies show that since it is hard to tell you parents things, you can tell your friends those things. So leave time for things like practicing an instrument, and studying, but then AFTER those things, you can be with friends! :)
