I am a teenager and am I am well aware of what is going on, but I do not think this is a solution. jphone, I am sorry to say kids feel a need to hang out, or in better words get out-not necesaraly doing something wrong but they just like getting out. Rabbi Wallerstein has been very succesfull in his separate bowling allys in the country or other things he does. I know people who on the inside have totally left yiddishkiet, but did not come to leaving the outside, so they stay with their bais yaakov appearance, some may think that is good while others will disagree, Although because on the outside people might not lable them as off the derech and help them, they will as I have been so many of my friends get help in other ways, it is just a matter of time. One thing I would say is always be there for your friends, whatever it is.
