Letter from the Editor
The holidays can be the happiest time of the year, full of love, joy, and presents!
Not to mention, time off of school, sleeping in, and time with family! How can
you not love this time of the year? However, for many, this is the worst time of
the year! The popular tween that may look like he or she has it all but when it
comes to opening presents, they are lucky to get new socks
and underwear. Are there “friends” going to tease them if
they tell the truth? Or the rich tween who gets all the
presents that they want, but they don’t get to actually
spend much time, if any, with their family. This tween
may want more family time than all the nice gifts.
Even the tween with parents that are divorced
and they may have to go spend the holi-
days with family they don’t really like
or understand. So as we go into this
holiday season remember everyone
has a story and a struggle of some
sort. Give a smile, a hug or an ear
and support each other and most
of all make the most of the
holiday season!
