Adults on Teen Board?

[Soose]

As a mom of a teen, I am interested in reading the teen forum. And when I look at the "New Posts" link, of course there are very interesting threads on the teen forum that draw me in, interesting to me as well as my teen. Perhaps there will come a time when I feel I have useful info to post. I don't always notice in which forum a thread is started. Think I just posted in the teen forum without noticing.

So... I wonder how the teens feel about adults chiming in on their board? Maybe it's meant to be sort of "teen/young adult space" and I should refrain from participating, unless it's a question of needing help for my teen and asking the teens for advice?

Please advise. :) Thanks!

I never even look at where something is posted... if I have something of value to add, I do. :)

I'm moving this question into the teen section... perhaps the teens should chime in here... after all, it's 'their section'.

i remember when i was a kid...i wouldn't of liked it.... and i remember when i was in my early 20's and thinking people 30 and over are ancient!!!! ;)

i very rarely roam this section... however i am 38 and although it's seldom i roam the 50 and older, i have posted there a few times. i sometimes feel a little akward and like i'm doing something taboo. but hey.. i am a rebel.

Well, it's not just a teen forum. It's for young adults, too. I wonder what's considered a young adult. I'm 32 and consider myself a young adult, but maybe some people wouldn't think so. But, I'm also not over 50 so don't really belong in the other age-segregated forum.

[Aleesha Sattva]

well it must not bother them... since they haven't even posted about it.

Or maybe they are busy or offline. :) My internet was having problems for a couple of days here.

Thanks, Aleesha for the answer and others for input. I am going to try to be more aware of which board a post is on.

Yeah - were is the board for us guys?

they think this topic is lame and are boycotting (and girlcotting!)

Isn't the title of the forum raw teanagers and young adults. Well, as a raw foodist, you can consider yourself young at 30, 40 or even at 50 compared to your life expectancy

I like how not even one teen commented here. haha.

I'm 26 and I think that's young adult.

I think it's good that adults reply in the teen section, although maybe only teens and young adults should post there. It's like advice from a raw food mom (or dad) we don't have:)

[Raw.N.It.Out]

Younger Adult, & I agree with the above poster(on the idea that it's like having a raw food mom or dad)...it makes me a little more at ease, to see so many valued regular contributors to this forum. The kind that have been there & done that, & have some wise advice on what might be possibly happening. :)

Never thought about this being an age-restricted board. If someone contributes and it resonates, who cares how old the responder is?

To put it in a different light - I'm a massage therapist, but I have seen children and teens in my practice. Should teens only see teen massage therapists?

Teens, like anyone I would think, have the ability to shrug off whatever doesn't apply to them.

Well, I'm 19 and I'm just happy to have some companions to walk with on my journey
though I'm quite new to this forum so idk how much that helps..... >.>
