I join this community because I believe that kids and teenagers have the right to speak their minds. I certainly think that they are the most honest and responsible people on earth. They have fresh thoughts and their numbers are the majority of the world. They definitely must have voice in the community and society. In research paper that I am working on right now, It shows that teenagers are aware of the political statistics of country, United States especially when the great depression hits America. They had this fear of economic crisis that is why in their simple action(voting Obama) they are trying to help for the change. I hope people will realize how important kids are in the world.

Needless to say I love your reasons for joining this network. I'm curious, though, because I followed your link to your research paper and find it to be a marketing site for buying research papers - this seems to be quite different from encouraging kids and teenagers to use THEIR voice. I'd welcome your thoughts on what seems to be a conflict of values!

As you can see from the world map on our home page, we have a growing, eclectic community of individuals from across the globe -- from Brooklyn to Pakistan, from North Dakota to China. Thank you for taking the time to add your voice to that fascinating mix.

As you surf around the Network and its companion site, www.fivefreedoms.org, I urge you to share your voice throughout. Take our You Be The Judge First Amendment quiz (a new scenario every two weeks). Leave a comment on a fellow member's personal page and make a new contact. Upload a video to our gallery, or watch and react to one already there. Join (or start) a group or visit the Soapbox to contribute to (or start) a discussion. And invite others to join us.

In short, use your voice to co-create our online community :-)

You may also be interested in taking a look at our companion site - the Five Freedoms Project. The section on "What We Value" includes a variety of resources about the five freedoms of the First Amendment, our leadership framework, student voice, and impact factors.

Post a comment on my page anytime with questions or ideas. Thanks again!
