About Us

Teenopinions.org is a platform for teens and tweens worldwide to share their opinions, ideas, reflections and perspectives with the world.

Our Mission

Give every teen and tween an opportunity to freely publish their perspectives in a non-competitive environment.

Our Core Principles

  • Our goal is to publish every opinion, helping the authors along if needed.
  • We believe in the passion and willingness of teens to create a global community of peers who love to write and share opinions!
  • We provide a welcoming and encouraging place for teens to share their opinions.
  • We believe writing is a valuable life skill and the best way to learn is to put pen to paper or fingers to keyboard and just write!
  • We are self-funded with our scholarships and pocket money and do not plan to run advertisements to operate our site.

 

Our Policies

  • We are not a forum for debating ideas. We leave that to the well established social media sites. Contrarian opinions written as posts are welcome.
  • We do not tolerate bullying. Comments are moderated to maintain a respectful environment.
  • We do allow rating of posts and request you to think very hard before giving a low rating to a fellow teen’s post.
  • We do not tolerate plagiarism. Posts found in violation will be removed.

TeenOpinions.org was conceived in mid-2018 and launched in the summer of 2019 by Arin Parsa and Aditya Indla, quizbowlers who engaged in spirited discussions among themselves and realized the need for a forum for young voices. In 2020, TeenOpinions.org was listed on the NY Times Learning Network. As readership expanded to over 15+ countries,  Aashna Parsa joined the team as an editor in the spring of 2025.
