YOUTH CORRESPONDENTS

"Trust, honesty and, ummm, good communication. Good communication is really important."

--Allie Leake, rising junior, Stafford High School

"I guess the best part is communication--and feeling comfortable with the person."

--Michelle McConnell, rising senior, Stafford

"A good relationship is made when two people feel comfortable enough around each other to talk about their continuous love for Dr. Seuss."

--Sarah Tooker, rising junior, Mountain View High School

"I'd have to say the most important part is being able to talk about stuff, 'cause if you can't talk, what is there to do?"

--David Henderson Stafford, rising junior, Stafford

"The most important thing about a relationship is being able to talk about stuff."

--Rusty Baron, rising junior, Stafford

"Trusting each other and being comfortable around each other. That's the really important stuff."

--Danny DaSilva, rising junior, Stafford

"What makes a good relationship is lots and lots of inside jokes, so that the conversation is always fun and never boring."

--Joe Ruiz, rising senior, Courtland High School

"The people have to trust each other. And respect each other's beliefs, whatever they may be. Without trust and respect, you don't have anything."

--Madeline Lovegrove, rising sophomore, Stafford

"It has to be fun."

--Sarah Bachman, rising homeschooled junior
