What's a good magazine for my 14-year-old daughter?!
Question: I want her to enjoy being a healthy teen! Not all the dirty vain trashy ones that have way too many ads that promote vanity and looking trashy. I wonder if there is one! Convince me that one exists!

My 14 year old likes Teen Ink written for teens by teens. Showcases poetry, photography, and other artistic pursuits of kids her age. Stay away from 17 and Teen Vogue. Shudder.
Shape, Seventeen??
National Geographic 4 kids
Good mag would be popular science.
Hey I loved it all through my childhood
alright seventeen is pretty good..they have this whole section on healthy body healthy you..its all about exercising and eating right..it also does features on the dangers of being too thin
it also has a good mix of style tips, beauty tips (makeup)and hair tricks) entertainment pieces and true stories...its the perfect mix for a teen
upfront is also really good. it is a bay version of the new york times. it has all these big news stories broken down into pieces that a teen can understand easily..its a good way for her to understand what is going on in the world without the complex vocabulary..it will keep her interested too
Girls' life magazine.
American Girl
Brio Magazine (Christian mag)
I agree with Seventeen, and add Shape for some balance.
how about rolling stone? wired? time?
I read Seventeen magazine its for agaes 12-to ?? The magazine does not advertise vanity or any of those things. It promotes being healthy,happy,stylish, and beautiful. And also CosmoGirl shows the same thing except I prefer personally seventeen.

i think seventeen magazine is good because it has fashion and real life stories and it also talks about things that girls especially need to know
try shout or bliss it helps with problems and also it has celebrity gossip quizzes fashion pages and much more but are nice but ny fav is shout and im a teen

I used to read "Teen" and "Seventeen" as a girl .... and I have seen "Teen Glamour" ..... but I am not 100% sure of their content .... Check them out first before you decide :)
:) Perhaps go to the drug store and peruse them for yourself .... or else you may never know what is really in them. I think it will be challenging to find one that does not have some stuff about dieting, boys, sex, etc .... It is hard to get away from all of that ... it is simply EVERYWHERE ...
:)
Good luck ... a healthy body image is SO, SO important! :)

If she's as smart as I was at that age: SMITHSONIAN or SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN.
If she's the typical clueless airhead that most teenage girls are, try SHAPE. Most of the others are too trashy and will just cause self-esteem issues because she'll want to be skeleton thin.
seventeen
When I was 14 I discovered Nylon magazine. You can order it online, get some at Barnes and Noble. It's not really trashy, it's more about artsy music, culture, fashion. I like it.
I read Justine and Brio.
no one said MAD magazine its funny clean goofy my girl friend in high school loved to read mine also popular science popular mechanics a lot of good stuff in them plus girls need to get into more mechanics and science and math......
Truthfully I don't know of one! the one that my mom got for me when I was a teen was called TEEN and it had only sex and hair and cloths in the whole thing! I can't believe looking back that she let me read it! My daughter is 7 but she'll have to be married before I'll buy one of those for her! idk maybe if you keep searching you'll find one with good examples and of good moral quality! happy hunting!!!
No convincing here KYDavid. I don't think they make them anymore. Love, honey
