Teenager- With what is going on nowadays, it is very hard to make a kosher hang out for boys and girls. I went to a Jewish Concert at the racetrack in the country a couple of years ago, it was supposed to be like a Jewish Woodstock kind of thing. The mixed dancing was the least problem there was there, what was going on on the blankets and grass was worse! If you really would like to get some concrete help for yourself I would suggest that you get a private learning partner to learn with and ask questions. hanging out is hanging out…why waste your time, you have a mind you can develop yourself in ways that you never knew. Torah isn’t only about being stuck in the classroom and memorizing, I think this turns kids off. Kids are looking for warmth and love, if they don’t find it at school they turn to the boys and drugs and alcohol. These mixed social affairs are not accomplishing much, maybe I am wrong but this woodstock thing stands out in my mind. lots of luck to you.
