Discussion: Teenage Bloggers

As a teenager myself, I often wonder what other people think of me, and other bloggers around me.

Today I want to start a fun discussion on said topic. I invite anybody to comment with their thoughts, whether you are an adult with advice or comments, or a designer yourself.

I’ll start with what I have to say;

I think that young people being passionate about something like design is great, and in the long run, many of theme will go onto use that in a career. Personally, design has helped me in many ways, such as the fact that I’ve matured, I’ve gained work experience (freelance), and I possess skills that will carry me far. Blogging has helped me interact with others like me, and show that young people can achieve the same, if not more than adults.

If you haven’t seen this before, here is a list of the Top 100 Bloggers under 18, if you’re a young blogger, don’t hesitate to join!
