Dear TeenInk,

First of all I love your magazine but when I read “Speak up Kid” it caught my eye out of all the rest of articles. Right when I started reading “Speak up Kid”, I felt inspired to speak my mind. In this article the author is sharing personal experiences that I couldn’t relate to, but could easily understand. With that in the article it helps with his claim, and makes the article even better. “We live in a world where being older means being heard.”, this quote is from the story and it makes the article so much stronger. With all of the inspiring words the author puts in the article,it makes me want to keep reading it. It tells you to just say your opinion even if people don’t ask, and I think if people would listen to him, the author then more people will have a say in our community, and world. “Don’t be afraid to tell the world that you’re here, that you have opinions too, that no once can tell you, you don’t matter, and that you won’t rest until you’ve earned whats rightfully yours: your say.
