Youth

Nowadays, the adolescence and youth must be life’s stages dedicate to develop the professional and cultural character, the definition of great goals to be conquered for the young people. Youth must be characterized by the happiness, enthusiasm, heroism, solidarity, self improvement and noble feelings. Currently, we find the youth without motivation because the majority of teenagers are growing without values, goals, aspirations, a family, or a purpose for the future. It seems an “old youth”, not because they have gray hair, because there is a lack of interest, inspiration and passion. Now we watch a deep individualism, selfishness and violence. Teenagers have lost their motivation because what they have learned is a character of materialism, this has deformed their objectives.

However, we can not judge teenagers that show this reality because they are the product of disfunctional families without maternal and fatherly figures. Sometimes adolescents are raised by the television, videogames, internet, cell phones, MP3, etc. they haven’t been warned of what is good or bad for them. On the other hand, if we want to change this problem; teachers, parents, church and government have to work very hard to improve the quality of life of the young people. They have to teach moral and civics principle, teachers and parents must be exemplary models for them because in that way the new generation will not repeat those acts.
