I am 22 and wrote a parenting book from a teen's perspective when I was in High School in Los Angeles, CA. I graduated from Emory University in May 2007. I do speaking events and radio shows across the country for teachers and parents about what life is really like from the net-generation view.

On Teens Today with Vanessa Van Petten
Vanessa gives real advice from teen's about how parents and adults can approach the net-generation and speak to them on their level. She honestly explores how teens today deal with everything from cheating on tests, marijuana, curfews, cyberbullying and much more.

Her goal is to give adults a small window into the lives of teens so they can develop better relationships and we can have happier young adults.
