...Nice to hear from you, John. Now that you've defended your viewpoint so beautifully, talk to more parents and "creepy" teens who are living their lives in pain and look at recent books by Philip Graham, Madeline Levine or other clinicians dealing with teens and their families. Then, to get some real perspective on this, look back 100 years, and then check more than 100 cultures around the world, where, according to leading anthropologists, there is no drug use by teens, no delinquency, and no teen-parent conflict.

And there is AIM's track record: around 3% of AIM-listed companies fail annually, a figure roughly comparable with the main market...
...premiered his first play, Men, at Sydney's shoebox-sized Old Fitzroy Theatre in 2000. "I have so much that I need to get out." Six plays on, and three major awards later (2001's Patrick White Award for Bed, 2003's Griffin Award for Rabbit, and 2005's Philip Parsons Award for the forthcoming Ruben Guthrie), Cowell should rattle the main-stage rafters with Self Esteem. A carnivalesque comedy set in the near future when Australian families are subject to in-house lifestyle consultants called CHADs, Cowell was inspired by the upsurge of Pentecostal churches and self-help industries...
