The G.L.A.R.E Club: “Chycs Chattin”

When you think of the word Glare; many would say that a lot of teenage girls do this to one another but in a more negative way. Girls tend to glare each other up and down and then form negative opinions about that person. You ask yourself, why are teenaged girls so hostile to each other? Why are they behaving in such disrespectful ways? Why are they behaving so violently? Why are they having un-protected sex with multiple partners and how can we break that cycle? The old African Proverb says,” It takes a village to
raise a child.”
