Problems among teenagers in Brazil...

In my opinion, it’s hard to say what the major problem among teenagers in Brazil is. So I decided to search on the net. The results didn’t surprised me, just confirmed what I supposed.
I could see that the delivery is the first reason for a teenager being hospitalized in public hospitals here in our country. I noticed as well that the number of pregnant adolescents has been increasing over the years.
Nowadays contraceptive methods are widely known, the most popular are condoms and the pill. However, sometimes neither the boys nor the girls give enough importance to the risks involved in unprotected sexual relations. But when is too late to avoid and the new baby has been already conceived, the young parents should look for proper support from voluntary institutions, for example.

What for?

    
     About five days ago, when I was returning home from "Cultura" I saw a really unusual situation. You see, It was a normal sunny afternoon at the street, but then when I was at the middle of Otávio Kelly street, I started linstening people shouting at each other, what made me really curious abuot the situation.
     But I just managed to understand what was happening at the moment I got closer to the mad guys: two "flanelinhas" were simply crazy and fighting with each other, apparently because one of them had stolen one real from the other, probably because the owner of a car had payed the wrong guy who had been watching his car while it was stopped on the street.
     So, as you all can see, that´s not an ordinary situation, but we can take two lessons from this: street is a very plural place so always be attempt to what is happening, and never steal any money from a "flanelinha". =D

Catch ya!

The last time I saw somebody throwing a fit it was about 3 weeks ago. I was at the cinema line and a group of teenagers tried to jump the queue and a old lady just got crazy when she saw the scene. Guards, Managers and many 'curious' came around to see the big confusion. The worst part was: the movie started 2 hours later, because of the situation!
Take care with big groups of teen at the cinema.. and old ladies too!
XOXO!
