I am with you on this one Angie...I think we are all too often afraid to even speak to kids/teens when they are in groups for fear of being verbally abused (or worse). Sure, this happens - but lets not forget that there are a lot of goods kids out there. I think a lot of problems occur when adults speak to teens in an agressive tone 'can't you all go and play somewhere else?' instead of speaking to them like we would another adult 'would you mind just turning that down a little as I'm struggling to get my toddler to sleep?'

But again, where were the parents of these teens Angie? Presumably they weren't old enough to be staying in units on their own, so they must still be under parent supervision....? *sigh* come on parents!!
