For LGBT ';adults';: Do you ever take teenagers' advice?

I mean, I'm only 16, but I still feel like I've been able to help people confused about themselves, which makes me really happy, because I'm an aspiring psychologist.





Also, I know some may see us as inexperienced or annoying, but sometimes looking at some of the answers on here made by teenagers make the most sense in certain questions. It obviously helps to have LGBT teens to talk to other confused teens as well.For LGBT ';adults';: Do you ever take teenagers' advice?
I'm 19 years old, but when I was in my first year of college, I was in the english course. My teacher read my essay and siad that I should be a psychologist. I'm going to say she was in her mid to late 40's. I was just 18 still.





I mean, I try my best to analyze things and give the best advice I can. I never actually thought that I was good at anything but her words really made me feel good. For a professor to say something like that, to me, it was pretty cool.





If adults want to take my advice, they may. i give it to whoever wants it. It's sincere and honest.For LGBT ';adults';: Do you ever take teenagers' advice?
I';m one of those adults, being 47. I haven't encountered an experience yet that I think would require outside advice - although it could most certainly happen in the future.





But I will say this about the teens who are regular posters: The answers are usually very mature and very on target. I usually forget how old the poster is unless mentioned - like now, for instance.





For those who need advice, particularly youths - the input of everyone is valuable, but someone your own age usually has a handle on the perspective of today's culture as it relates to your peers.





Keep up the good posts. Makes me feel better about the future.
Yes, even at the advanced old age of 47, sometimes I do. Teenagers have a different view of the world than I do; and sometimes they're spot on with their advice. There are some awesome and intelligent young folks on this site and in my real-life world. I'd be an idiot if I discounted what they had to say merely because of their age.
I listen to everyone's advice on here. Some give better advice than others but the diversity of ages on here means the quality of answers are good.
im a LGBT teen and i do think that sometimes we give out better advice and it does feel good to be helping someone
It's fine to give advice. For the most part, most people on here give fantastic advice. Regardless of age.
mmm depends on the topic.
They should listen to us! We're young and full of spunk.
