In case you haven’t told a teen that It Gets Better lately (or, as I approach it, “It Gets Different”), perhaps you should pass along these photos of fairly normal-looking adults holding pictures of themselves as teenagers right in the middle of their awkward phases. For many teens, that stage can last for what feels like a lifetime (mine was from around 13 to 20), but these photos by Merilee Allred (spotted via Fubiz) prove that awkward isn’t an eternity.
