Do you think answers should designate a teen section for all these kids?

So perhaps if you are answering in categories like marriage and divorce you aren't bombarded by 12 year olds saying i like this hot boy but i don't know if he likes me, and the other 3 questions they post 1000 times a day

    Yes, definitely...I'm sure most of the adults and even the teens would agree...in some categories, the 'silliness' or lack of maturity is really annoying...as well as those repeated questions!

    (Not to mention using text messaging 'lingo', or atrocious spelling and grammar!)

    Aboslutely! It was my understanding that you have to be 18 to have an account anyway? They lie about their ages to get an account, share way to much personal information, etc. teens have every right to have an answer board, such as this. However, I do think it would be nice to separate out the teens from the adults. It does get a bit tedious to sort through to find the more serious questions.

    YES; and since they don't even belong here, it makes me wonder how they even got accounts unless they lied about their ages when they opened them. Which in turn begs the question-where are their moms and dads? Have these kids been told of the dangers of the internet? It's annoying AND scary.

    I think a YA! JR site would be great fun for them!

    Absolutely! It would greatly improve the site, and it would be to Yahoo's benefit if they created a teens only version. I'm sure more people would use Y! Answers if they didn't have to wade through page after page of "Like OMFG duz dis guy want meh or iz hes jes wantin summa mah *****?"

    Adults ask, and answer, stupid questions too. So maybe what you're looking for is an idiot section. I don't know ... send in a suggestion to Yahoo.

    Yes. Intelligent questions for a change - wow! what a concept! Do the same thing for religionists and their religious prosletyzing. They make me so tired.
