Survey Says Teens Think Ethics Rule
Increasingly, American teens say they see ethical behavior as an important part of business. This is a key finding of the latest installment of an annual study of young people's attitudes about business and ethics.
One indication that teenagers may be fine-tuning their ability to make ethical decisions is that the percentage who say they would act unethically to get ahead if there were no chance of getting caught has dropped to 22 percent, down from 33 percent in 2003.

Finding Homework Help For Teens
Teens are using computers in nearly every aspect of their lives. In fact, nearly one-third of 8- to 18-year-olds have a computer in their bedroom ("Generation M: Media in the Lives of 8−18-Year-Olds," (#7251), The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, March 2005). However, not everyone says computers alone make the grade when it comes to homework help. Many students report feeling frustrated because they can't find the assistance they need online or elsewhere to get their homework done.

Staying Connected With Teens
The latest rite of passage for many of today's teens has less to do with getting a driver's license or a later curfew than it does with talking to parents and taking on more responsibility.
The new "rite" involves teens getting their own cell phones-and for many parents, it represents a great way to stay in touch with on-the-go teens, while granting them a little added freedom. However for teens, cell phones are often about more than just making calls and learning about managing phone plans. They're also a way to communicate their personal style and express their independence.
