Teens' Decisions Based on Feelings

Often times teens do not realize how one mistake can impact their lives.

Their decisions are made based on how they feel at the moment.

Society teaches teens to feel and act instead of taking time to think about what their actions may do. Living this way causes many regrets and pain.

Lia McCord's story , from Houston, TX, is one example of how one mistake can alter life. Her dramatic story of one small decision detours her life for over four years in a Bangladesh prison.

Teaching teens to stop and think before acting may save them years of pain.
