    A reply on Conversation: Are there any teens on this site?

    Aug 2 2012: I loved that expression: unfulfilled feeling... Im chilean and I dont speak english very good. But though, I felt identificated with every word you said, its like you talked and taught me how to express everything that makes me, me. Im 14 and really different to others, in this exact moment a friend of mine came here and looked at me as if I was a genious in extintion, she doesnt know these page but she understood immediatly that I had nothing to do in here. I wonderr of you could answer me this question: Am I more intelligent that my friends? ... they make me feel like I am, and Im scared of it

    Aug 2 2012: I am only 14 and starting loving TED when I was twelve. Im also tired of my classmates conversations, just fashion and movie stars and everyone tries to act as if they were better than the other. I often think there must be a topic revolution so they just stop talking about superficial stuff, but yeah it wont happen so meanwhile I will feel myself confortable with who I am and the most of all, be part of these amazing teenagers that we all are... There´s people like me everywhere, thats a huge relief.

    Aug 2 2012: Totally agree with you, my friends think its wierd to like to hear talks, and often tell me I am too inteligent to handle so this didnt only reafirm my faith in humanity, it also did with my faith in my self.

    Aug 2 2012: Hey, I am 14 and Im so grateful I saw this conversation before it ended up in 4 days, 18 hours and 38 minutes. I thought I was the only strange girl in this whole world that liked things besides facebook or instagram. I watch every week the new talks that appear and get impressed of the amazing people that stands on that scenary every day, I just want to be one of them. Your comment sounded extremely familiar to me and in some way I felt Im not alone, somewhere, thousands of kilometers from me there are teenagers who feel wierd for liking their dad´s talks app. Im chilean.
