Teens don't consciously mean to be non-communicative, withdrawn and perhaps even hostile when it comes to a relationship with parents. In reality, teens are more often confused, scared and simply unsure... Full story

Elizabeth Youngman Westphal Special to the Village News Note to the reader: This is not a review – it is a recommendation. There are only three performances and in an effort to support local theatre, it was necessary to attend a rehearsal. I observed the second act run-through, and the rehearsal was delightful.

As long as my family's necessary expenses are covered, spending money on entertainment can be worth it. However, I've...
