Join us Sunday February 10, 2013 at 7pm eastern/6pm central for another edition of Teens Speaking Out.

Education is a large staple in the development of the youth into functioning and useful beings in society. Sadly enough the education system within the U.S. has severely declined and none are recieving the blow harder than the children. Join us on Blog Talk Radio As we discuss the Pros and Cons of a Education system that may be helping some and failing others. Lets ...come together and discuss what we can do to better serve our youth and prepare them for a better chance at meaningful and fulfilling lives.
