Middle School Student Insights

At a recent meeting with middle school teachers talking to parents who will have children in middle school next fall, I was impressed when one of the teachers quoted a middle school student; "Middle school is like a soap opera and you are either in it or watching." How insightful.

It reminded me of an article I wrote. Click over to "On Middle School Children and Their Parents" to see if it, too, provides some insight.
