Many teenage boys are idiots. Many teenage boys are nice, caring people. Almost all teenage boys can be both, depending on circumstances.
Its sad you havent met any nice ones. |

Remember that news =/= doctors. This "shy eating" would probably be considered a diagnostic criteria for anorexia or ED-NOS. Not an illness on its own.

| The US isnt a democracy. Its a representative republic. That is, you dont get a say on every one of the issues, you merely elect someone to speak for you. The Queen has her chosen representative to New Zealand, the Governor General. The Governor General has less power than any member of parliament, ... |

| I take a high dose of ritalin, and have since I was 13. It saved my life. If I had kept up what I was doing, I would be in jail or dead by now. I was kicked out of four schools before I was 13, because I wouldnt sit still and was extremely violent towards anyone who pissed me off. I had no friends, ... |
