Parasites Make

This is a story about head lice.
They have survived the ages
by becoming jungle guerrillas,
creeping through the trees that
are our hair shafts, sheltering
their young among the trunks,
stopping on the well-shaded
floor for a bite now and then.
We are their unwilling hosts,
and their only known enemy.
But they live where we can't see
them, on the tops of our heads,
back behind our ears, in the
thick growth along the napes of
our necks. (Stop scratching.)

What worries today's young
teens? A recent Yale University
study of 500 sixth and seventh
graders revealed the usual con-
cerns about academic achieve-
ment, along with worries about
peer relationships and personal
safety.
"They all worry about simi-
lar things - ranging from mak-
ing good grades to coping with
bodily changes caused by pu-
berty, forming friendships and
romances, and adapting to new
rules at home," says Bonnie
Leadbeater, associate professor
of psychology at Yale Universi-
ty.
Among the researchers' find-
ings:
Good students are more like-
ly to worry about peer relation-
ships.
Depressed girls are more like-
ly than their peers to worry
about appearance. Depressed
boys are most concerned about
family problems. Nationally, 16
percent of boys and 11 percent
of girls report moderate to high
levels of depression.
Girls who cut classes, get into
fights or otherwise misbehave
are more concerned than other
students about family problems.
Misbehaving boys, however,
tend to worry most about rela-
tionships with the opposite sex.
Leadbeater points out that
what teens worry about can in-
dicate whether they will flour-
ish or falter in middle school. For
example, a teen who is con-
cerned about getting along with
classmates is likely to do better
academically than students who
aren't as worried about peer re-
lationships.
