How do you determine BMI for children and teens?
Divide your total weight in pounds by your height in inches squared and then multiply the result by 703. Or: BMI = [(weight in pounds)/(height in inches)2] X 703 For ages 2 to 20, gender and age are taken into account. BMI is plotted on Centers for Disease Control and Prevention growth charts and is interpreted as a percentile.
Do you accept court-ordered teens?
Yes, a student may be expelled from our program. This usually occurs when the student exhibits an tendency to endanger themselves or others.We recommend that teens be tested at least once a month. That is why our program is set up to send parents multiple kits. To avoid becoming predictable and to help eliminate teen temptations to indulge between tests, we encourage parents to "mix it up" when it comes to picking the specific dates to administer their tests. In some families, you can damage relationships by simply voting Republican. or Democrat, by rooting for the Cubs. or Yankees. The "silent treatment" can go on for years.
How often do teens get STDs?
Studies show that 1 in 4 sexually active teenagers contract an STD. In 2004, it was estimated that in the year 2000 there were: About half of new cases occurred among 15-24 year olds. Three STDs (Human Papilloma Virus, Trichomoniasis, and Chlamydia) accounted for 88% of all new cases of STD among 15 to 24 year oldsWe do NOT believe that all teens are bad drivers, nor do we feel that all adults are faultless. Statistics show that new drivers are much more likely to get into a situation that they cannot properly handle due to inexperience.
Do you take teens on medication?
Yes. The goal of the programs is to get the teens off all medication if possible. We also understand medication may be nescessary on a short term basis or may be necessary for a lifetime.We do NOT believe that all teens are bad drivers, nor do we feel that all adults are faultless. Statistics show that new drivers are much more likely to get into a situation that they cannot properly handle due to inexperience. It does not matter if the new driver is young or old, new drivers lack the experience to make proper decisions with situations that they are placed. It just happens to be coincidental that most people learn to drive as teens.
What is STAR TEENS?
Answer: STAR Teens are 13-18 years old and represent our effort to educate the next generation as to the positive aspects of motorcycling. This encourages safety training, judgment training and positive behavior. We are shaping the future motorcycle riders.Although not highly structured, there are many activities for teens including water-skiing, tubing, canoeing, kayaking, pedal boating, sailing, volleyball, use of games room and more.The National Strength and Conditioning Association issued a position statement on pre-adolescent resistive training in 1996.
Which methods are most frequently used by teens?
The birth control pill, condoms and Depo-provera (an injection/shot given every 3 months) are most frequently used by sexually active teens because they are accessible and easier to use than other methods.Our programs have experience handling issues such as: low self-esteem, depression, lying, manipulating, physical outbursts, Bipolar Disorder, ADD, ADHD, ODD, Borderline Personality Disorders, Narcissism, alcohol and drug experimentation, substance abuse,truancy, declining grades in school, disrespect, refusing to follow rules, defiance, running away, aggression, anger, stress, poor peer relationships, co-dependency, etc.
