I want to change the world, one teen at a time. I want top go out there find kids like Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris (Columbine shooters) and help them, or find someone that can. I want to make sure no teen ever feels alone. I know it's an unrealistic goal, but I think I have the power to make it a reality, I just don't know how yet. I want to end bullying, end hate, end discrimination. All of you probably think I'm insane, but I will do this, or die trying. Does anyone have any ideas how I can start now. Since I'm only 15 there's not much I can do but I want to do everything I can as soon as I can because every second teens are being pushed closer and closer to death or violence.

I think it's awesome that you want to achieve this! :)
Well you first should go to a good college and start an orginization after that. Sorry if that wasnt much help.

That was helpful, thanks! :) I do think i already know where I'm going to college. Does anyone know if there's a specific major for someone who want's to be a school psycologist? I feel like that way I could be in an enviorment with students everyday, and see every aspect of the school.

Study both philosophy and psychology since both are really important when understanding people. There are great colleges in Colombia and Chile, but I guess you want to go to college in a developed country and I am unable to help you with that. I am planning to study psychology too.

Cool! I want to stay local for collage which for me is Northeastern USA. I talked to my teacher today and told her my plan. She gave me some advice of double majors to get and helped me figure out what area I really want to specialize in. I want to work at a school for troubled kids as a school psycologist.

I think it's really great that you want to help troubled teens and it sounds like you are motivated which is really great. Since this is something you are really passionate about, I bet you will be really good at whatever you decide to do. But I think you should understand that you will not be able to change the world unfortunately. You might be able to make a positive impact on a lot of teens, and even if you prevent one kid from committing suicide, you will have done something worthwhile in your life. And the hard thing is, you cannot go out and find the kids that need help, they need to come to you first.

That's cool how you want this to become something! I really think as a starter you should create a club at your school that is for this type of stuff. And then let it grow! Let the club grow and let it do local stuff? I think once you can do that, your dreams are right there! Now it sounds easy, but you need to be dedicated to this if you really want it to happen!

I'm trying to start a gay-straight alliance at my school but the principal won't let me. I even had teachers that volunteered to run it. And I can do anything if I try hard enough, including changing the world.
