Hmmmm...
But I have this friend who is a gifted teacher and when her elementary school students were whiny one day about this that and the other thing, she stopped the lesson and taught them how to write their own blues instead of whining. It worked very well for the rest of the year! When someone felt whiny, they could ask to present their blues song/chant to the class and then be done with the kvetching. I think this could go for teens, too, no?
