Children of the Revolution
We learned to crawl alongside the PC. We came of age with the Internet. Early-adopting, hyperconnected, always on: Call us Children of the Revolution, the first teens and tweens to grow up with the network. It takes a generation to unlock the potential of a transformative technology � we are that generation. From IM to MP3 to P2P, we lab-test tomorrow�s culture. While others marvel at the digital future, we take it for granted. Think of it as the difference between a second language and a first. And imagine the impact when full fluency hits the workplace, the shopping mall, the living room. In the past, you put away childish things when you grew up. But our tools are taking over the adult world. Check it out: The technology is trickling up.
Children of the Revolution
Elizabeth Carr was born on December 28, 1981 — nine months after her parents' sperm and egg were joined in a petri dish. As the first US test-tube baby, she sparked controversy among religious leaders, ethicists, physicians, and the general public. Now there are nearly 1 million people around the globe who owe their births to in vitro fertilization. But other reproductive issues, like human cloning and stem cell research, are still divisive. And IVF babies like Carr have reached voting age. Now a junior in college, she's been drawn into the debate, addressing a United Nations conference on infertility in May and, in November, a similar forum in Prague.
Hausgrafik.CH Since 1981, more than 45,000 babies have been born in the US as a result of IVF. About 13,000 were twins or triplets. |
WIRED: The theme of the UN conference was 'Time to break our silence.' How personal is that for you?
CARR: The focus has been on doctors and parents. What gets lost is what we, the children, think of IVF — the fact that it's not a big deal to us, that we're normal. People are realizing IVF is the backbone of newer technologies.
What do you think about the controversy over cloning and stem cell research?
In vitro was controversial when I was born. My parents had to go to Virginia to have me because it was illegal in Massachusetts. I try to keep my mind open before I decide what I think about new technologies or new procedures. Because when I was little, that's something a lot of people wouldn't do. No one ever had a problem with Elizabeth Carr; they only had a problem with the way I was conceived.
Where do you personally draw the line on cloning?
Since my father has multiple sclerosis, I don't have a problem with therapeutic cloning. The only thing I'd be completely against right now is cloning a whole human being. That's my line in the sand. But I also think that society, as a whole, is not ready to draw that line.

Your smile is only as good as your tooth tattoo. That's the idea behind dental art, wherein teeth trump skin as the new canvas for self-expression. At $3 a pack, the decals, made by Oralgiene and other firms, are produced from FDA-approved water-soluble ingredients and stick for 24 hours — or until you brush your teeth.
For more permanent change, some kids opt for Raintree Essix's blue, red, green, and clear rhinestones. They last up to a year but must be applied by a dental professional. Who's getting them? Twenty-year-old Jessica Salvatierra, for one. She recently glued her birthstone, aquamarine, on one of her front teeth. 'It's different, it's cool, and it suits me,' she says. At about $50 a stone, it's a small price to pay for a toothsome smile.
15% of teenagers have body tattoos, a USA Today poll found — two-thirds of them without their parents' permission.

Forget that other pets dotcom: The wildly popular Neopets.com claims 15 million users, 12 million of them under age 18.
Consider Graham Parker, a 15-year-old from Scottsdale, Arizona. While his dog Bailey lives in the Parker family home, a blue rhinoceros-lion hybrid named Tonitu, and Demetrei, a purple poogle, both take up residence at Neopets.com.
When you sign up, you get 200 Neopoints — the online world Neopia's local currency — to use toward caring for 1 of 44 pet species (from a cybunny to a chomby to a poogle). 'It's so addicting,' says Kate Wilson, 18, of Seattle, who had to give up Neopets cold turkey. 'I wasn't doing my homework.'
The average Neopets.com visitor lingers 50 minutes a day, second only to EA.com among game sites, according to comScore Media Metrix. Hatched as a diversion by British university students in 1999, Neopets is branching out. Two lines of toys and a videogame are in the works. And Neopets plush toys and tchotchkes are already for sale at Limited Too stores. 'I only go when no one else is there,' admits Parker. 'It's sort of a girls' store.'
Children of the Revolution
Ah, the pains of adolescence � the acne, the growth spurts, the sullen moods. So it used to be. But now there�s a smoother road to adulthood, paved with the latest pharmaceuticals.
Mike Lorrig |
Condition: Menstrual cramps
Treatment: Ortho Evra patch
This contraceptive patch slowly releases hormones, preventing pregnancy and minimizing the level of prostaglandins, the hormones that cause menstrual cramps in about half of teenage girls.
Condition: Anxiety and depression
Treatment: Paxil
Among the many drugs used to treat moody teens — Prozac, Zoloft, Celexa — Paxil is a favorite, approved by the FDA in 1999 for treatment of social anxiety disorder. The drugs are all so-called selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors: They boost serotonin in the brain, which allows nerve cells to fire more rapidly, resulting in fewer outbursts of adolescent angst. And they work. Use of SSRIs among kids increased 62 percent from 1995 to 1999.
Condition: Irregular or absent period
Treatment: Glucophage
After 40 years as a leading diabetes drug, Glucophage is now used to treat polycystic ovary syndrome, a disorder responsible for irregular or absent menstruation in 10 million American women and girls, and which can cause infertility.
Condition: Late bloomer
Treatment: Somatropin
Cadavers were once the only source of human growth hormone, used to treat children whose physical development is lagging. But since the mid-'80s, synthetic HGH somatropin has been made in labs — and prescriptions of brands like Humatrope and Nutropin are taking off. But a JAMA study found that 40 percent of kids who get the therapy (injected by a doctor) don't merit it — they're not slow developers, they're just short.
Condition: Lack of sleep
Treatment: Pregnenolone
In the world of ninth grade all-nighters, this naturally occurring hormone enhances memory and alertness. Unlike Ritalin, the stay-awake study drug of the '90s, pregnenolone is sold over the counter in vitamin shops. Doctors fear increasing recreational use by kids, whose bodies already produce all they need.
Condition: Acne
Treatment: BenzaClin
This gel, which came on the market last year, combines two medicines — the old standby benzoyl peroxide and the powerful antibiotic clindamycin — to fight zits. Together they've proved as much as 20 percent more effective than either drug alone.
Condition: Poor muscle tone
Treatment: Creatine
Who needs Charles Atlas —�or steroids? Creatine, a natural nutrient found in skeletal muscles, is also synthesized from plants and sold at fitness clubs. Along with over-the-counter cousins HMB and androstenedione, it's increasingly popular among teenage boys as a way to bulk up.
Children of the Revolution
It's what happens when Silicon Valley entrepreneurship meets the underage demand for beer. In Menlo Park, California, two high school sophomores created a surprisingly efficient startup selling fake IDs for up to $200 a pop. Their tools: a computer, a digicam, a laminator, Photoshop, and some thick paper, police speculate. The counterfeiters turned out more than 200 remarkably convincing bogus cards — until they got busted, in March, for possession and manufacturing of identifications. The felony came with the ultimate punishment: up to three years without use of the Internet. Here's how they did it.
The first step is to take a digital photo of a real driver's license. The kids likely used Photoshop for fine-tuning.
A magnetic strip can be purchased at any office supply store. Swipe a real one and you'll get all the information listed on the front of the ID. Swipe a fake and it'll come up empty.
The state seal and DMV logo can be downloaded from any site displaying sample licenses. Though a real license has a hologram, the kids just printed the logo onto a laminate cover.
A bona fide license number will call up data on a real driver. These numbers were probably picked at random.
Photos were taken with a digital camera using a simple blue background. Again, Photoshop makes mimicry easy.
The birth date and expiration date are easy to calculate — a license expires after four years.
The signature was sometimes authentic — part of the digital photograph — and other times typed in cursive font.
After all text and images were color-printed onto a card, and the hologram printed onto the plastic, a small laminating machine offered the final touch.

At 10 years of age, Jesse Petrilla was getting design tips by calling the game programmers at LucasArts. At 12, he built his first computer. And now at 19, Petrilla is about to see his gaming hobby become a paying profession.
Hausgrafik.CH Nearly 7 million teens between 16 and 19 have jobs. Of these, 17,000 are computer programmers or systems analysts. |
Petrilla's a game-mod guy — not happy with playing first-person shooters like Quake and Doom, he creates custom games by modifying their content and characters. The triumphant result: mods like Quest for Al-Qa'eda, an inspired antiterrorist gimmick that's scored a million downloads in less than four months (quest.shorturl.com). He's also working on Britney Goes Crazy, in which Britney Spears leads the revolt against a conquering alien horde. It sounds downright unsavory, but Petrilla secured the OK from Spears' peeps to develop the game.
Mod games today are like indie cinema in the early 1990s — a cleverly designed mod is an excellent calling card for the industry. Most are made for fun and distributed for free, but some, like Counter-Strike, have become lucrative franchises. And an increasing number of kids like Petrilla get jobs on the strength of their mods. He is now working on a game tied to comic-book author and movie f/x maven Kevin VanHook's upcoming film, The Fallen Ones. The goal: Get 'the Segas and EAs and Acclaims' to bite. Which would mean the paycheck Petrilla's been after.

Why fold jeans at the Gap when you can get a new DVD player by making puppy-dog eyes into your webcam? In exchange for posting flirty photos, journal entries, and casual chat, these young experts in urges and acquisitions are hauling in pretty cool gear. Their sites are linked to mainstream registries at Amazon.com and elsewhere. The gift strategy seems to work, though police worry the sites can be a prowling ground for pedophiles.
The following are excerpts from the wish lists of a 16-year-old girl and a 17-year-old boy.

Paul Hochstetler didn't click a mouse in school this year, but he knitted a kickin' pair of socks: green, with orange heels and toes. 'It was a cool combination,' says the 11-year-old son of a software engineer.
Deep in Oregon's Silicon Forest, near Portland, high tech families like Paul's have found their own cool combination in the private Swallowtail School, where classes are small and computers are shunned. A third of the school's students come from homes where tech pays the bills; many of their parents are among the 15,000 workers at Intel, just minutes away. But in class, kids sing, knit, sew, and sculpt. They scrawl fractions in workbooks. Prior to high school, the philosophy goes, computers (as well as movies, television, and radio) get in the way. Paul's family has several home computers, but he logs on for only a couple of hours a week — and then usually just to practice typing. His Game Boy gathers dust; he prefers reading Harry Potter and Nancy Drew, practicing cello, and romping in the yard.
But won't tech-deprived kids fall behind? 'If something comes up about computers that they have to know,' says Barry O'Mahony, an Intel engineer and father of two Swallowtail students, 'we can teach them ourselves.' Plus, Paul's hardly a Luddite. He's programmed his Lego robots to race around the house carrying real mice. And he's leaning toward a high tech career. 'I think I want to be an engineer,' he says. 'I've got lots of ideas.'

Back in the days of vinyl, getting INXS's latest 45 was the mark of cool. Today, 'N Sync fans pine for the next HitClip. HitClip players look like tiny boom boxes and have one volume setting — loud. At about $4 and the size of a postage stamp, each single-on-a-chip lasts barely a minute. But that hasn't stopped kids from scooping up 20 million of them in the past two years. Sixth-grader Laney Schorp, of San Antonio, Texas, counts down her school's Top 10.
Top 10 HitClips at Hardy Oak Elementary School:
1. Michelle Branch, 'Everywhere'
2. Vanessa Carlton, 'A Thousand Miles'
3. Smash Mouth, 'I'm a Believer'
4. Britney Spears, 'I'm a Slave 4 U'
5. Destiny's Child, 'Emotion'

Emily Brossard, 18, on how she met her prom date, Aaron, on Yahoo! Personals: i first started using the internet around age 14. my family had just gotten the net so i started surfing it, going to chat rooms and fun stuff like that. i usually went to places like mtv.com, or clothing sites like alloy.com. sites i visit regularly now are yahoo greetings bc thats the only way i can email from school, clothing sites like old navy, and target bc target rocks!
one of my scary stories is that when i went to chat rooms horny guys who said they were 16 and prolly 40 would ask to see my pic, and sometimes to yes even have 'cyber sex.' but thats when the conversation pretty much ended! !yucky!
most teens only date ppl from their school. ya know friends of friends … but if the guys at ur school suck like mine do then ur screwed! So my friend heather was over at my house … she doesn't have the net so we usually go on when shes here … she wanted to go there [yahoo personals] so i thought well why not it will be funny!
online ads are appealing bc u get to see pics. i saw aaron and thought he was way cute. thats when i decided to post an ad … bc i had to post one to contact him!
my close friends think its actually kinda cool that i met him online … my friend heather has actually tried to meet a guy on personals since i met aaron.
when i told dad that i met a boy from janesville [a nearby town in Wisconsin] he said how the hell did u meet him? i told him and he just kinda shrugged and asked another question about aaron.
In one study, 17% of kids said they'd used IM to ask someone out. 13% used IM to break up with someone.

Age: 17
How often do you send messages?
I've got maybe 15 friends on my list. If my friends are on, I do it every day, one or two of them at once.
Ever written a prank?
My friends and I changed our screen names so the other person wouldn't know who we were.
If you could be on anyone's buddy list, who would it be?
Prince William. I've always wanted to meet him and I know I can't because he's royalty and all that stuff so that would be really neat.

Francesco Totti, my favorite soccer star from the Italian team.
Palo Alto: IM
Name: Misha Guttentag
Age: 14

All of the time. Frequently, it involves speaking only in Spanish or asking them ridiculous questions like, 'Do you know the muffin man?'
Do you send messages at school?
No. Excuse me if I learn there!
