Wow, if those were golden years, my heart breaks for today's teens. Of the 50 people I finished 8th grade with in the epitome of upper middle class suburbia, 3 of them had died by suicide by the time the rest of us were finishing high school, and they weren't the last. It seemed like an age where problems existed, but were deeply shameful, deeply hidden, and deeply isolating.
