Any self-respecting teenager has to have at least five angst-ridden issues in life. Okay, some really cool ones may have three. Take parents, teachers, schools, exams, weight, friends, enemies; then there's the mess that groan-ups have made of the world. Like all the wars they fight. And they've used up the water, the air, the forests as though there were no generation after them.
