    We tend to think that teens are selfish beings and can’t see past their own petty concerns. But it’s more to the point that they are trying to make sense of feelings and situations they haven’t encountered before. I would be interested to see interviews with teens who are dealing with life-threatening conditions, too.

    This article really moved me. I suffer from Crohn’s disease and like the women in this article, didn’t ever want to impose my condition on my teens. But they act in many small ways that tell me they “get” it.
