One Tree Hill was a cultural phenomenon that taught teens about sex, drugs, douchebags, and how to deal with growing up. For all its faults, here are ten life lessons the show actually taught:
10 Athletes and nerds are a match made in heaven. No, we probably shouldn’t get married at age 16, but when you know, you know.
9 Being a good person is more fulfilling than being rich or famous.
8 Though forgiveness may be earned, your mistakes will never be forgotten. Redemption is a lonely, and often unappreciated road.
7 The way you treat your family says a lot about your character.
6 You can’t live your dreams through someone else.
