May 1990 Teen Life: Pets, Fishbowls & Tortured Moms
Oct 03, 2023, 09:00 AM
Bar! Ton! Lynch! Bar! Ton! Lynch!!!
It's time to crack open a brand-new (33-year-old) issue of Sassy! A lovely profile of Cara Dunne, a blind Harvard student, is chased by the horror show of Karen's report on volunteering at a vet's office. Kim has the brilliant brainstorm of soliciting stories of her colleagues' teen cruelty to their moms, and THEN reaching out to said moms for comment. Christina goes to Hawaii to interview some world-class surfers about the sport. And the rest of the Teen Life topics are a rich tapestry too: we do a tight ten on the bizarre photo choice for Body Talk; critique the What He Said respondents on their stories of standing up dates; sit with the deep thoughts of Stuff You Wrote; and more! Call your mom, then listen!
