In my opinion it’s not teenagers, it’s teenagers drinking. Better enforcement of drinking laws would go a long way. Maybe only serve alcohol in 21+ areas.

I lived in NM for a few years in the 70s and did not find this true. I visited many pueblos and found that as long as you had respect - didn't try climbing into the kiva or photograph residents like they were in a zoo - that people were friendly. Had many good experiences and was occasionally invited into someone's home to talk for a while. My time in New Mexico gave me tremendous respect for the people. I was fortunate to see some local dances and such and never experienced a problem. That being said I understand that some important events had become somewhat overrun with tourists after that and since that time tribes have taken to closing down the pueblo during these important events.
