As a teenager myself, I know exactly how to take your trip to the next level with your family.

An unpopular opinion
Every disagreement starts simply enough. You state an opinion, someone else counters that opinion and you both offer up points until someone relents or both agree to disagree. But what happens when you’re in a group and EVERYONE disagrees with you…even when you’re right? Like when an argument arises that we use 10% of our brain and your group agrees? It’s easy enough to breakout your phone, go to Google and show them that 90% of our brain is NOT inactive.
