      This website is extremely important for my project. It explains in detail the three main waves of feminist anthropology, including the important names (Elsie Clews Parsons, Margaret Mead, etc).

      This article is very interesting because it is explaining how ARE interested in religion, they just want to adapt it to a more modern way. An interfaith survey of 1153 teens released by B'nai Brith says that 70% of teens value religion and they would like to connect better with religion. They also state that when they are in their younger phase of teenage years, they are interested in religion but the interest drops when they become older.

      This web page is very interesting because it very clearly identifies the modern teenage culture while somewhat comparing it to what the past culture was. It explains that teens act mostly to do whatever their parents tell them not to do. They are driven to take risks to find that independence from their parents. Fashion is also changing very quickly. Loyalty is a crucial part for teenage friendships. Common interests are very important, but loyalty is the key element.
