Dear all, I need song recommendations for kids between 10 to 14. What do kids these days listen to? Barney is way too young for them but I don't want them listening to Justin Bebier and (shudder) Glee. In fact, half of the music I've heard targeted at pre-teens have so much messages of s*x and other things I'd prefer kids only hearing about when guided by a teacher or parent. Disney is so far the only option I have but there HAS to be something else. Right????

Alexis - maybe you don't need songs that are specifically targeted at pre-teens. Our now 14-yr.old now listens to a fair bit of "the new stuff kids listen to", but before that he liked a lot of our old favourites. Elvis, Queen, anything upbeat and catchy and uncomplicated, really. Jerry Lee Lewis, Chuck Berry, even Frank Sinatra. Oh, and Green Day.
But then, his English wasn't too hot so we didn't worry too much about the lyrics![]()
There's a series released here called "Hits for Kids" which seems to be the same sort of music, a mix of new hits and remakes of classic rock'n'roll songs.

Dear Powers That Be,
I can not even begin to express the gratitude I feel that she doesn't have breast cancer. Would it be too much to ask you, though, to help guide her doctors to find a treatment for her other conditions that doesn't knock her on her a$$.
Sincerely,

Dear Gas Company,
Thank you for fixing my heater but finding out that I may have to pay because it's flood related makes my Service Guard program a waste of money. I would like a 10 year refund on this service.
Even if I had flood insurance, they'd probably not help because it wasn't a natural disaster.
Dear Accountant,
Please get my taxes figured out. If I owe, I need to find out now to make arrangements.
Dear Self,
Depression sucks. Get over it.
