Проблемы молодежи (Young people’s problems)

                          Young people’s problems.

     Everybody says your youth is probably the  best  time  of  young  life,
that being young means romance, love, new discoveries & so  on.  But  it  is
also the most difficult time because you have to make  some  very  important
decisions, which will influence all your future life.
     Things are not easy nowadays even for adults, but  for  teen-ages,  who
have to  find  their  own  place  in  society,  it’s  very  difficult.  It’s
necessary not only to adapt to your society, but also to be confident  about
your position in 5, 10 or 20 years time.
     For your future it is essential to have a good job. Every girl  or  boy
leaving secondary school should choose an institution of  higher  education,
or if he or she doesn’t want to study any more, choose a job straight way.
     Put even if you are studying, you need money of your  own  to  pay  for
extra clothes, tapes, books. It something the problem.
     Emotional problems for young people can  be  far  more  difficult  than
financial ones. The typical teenager problem is drug-habit. Some  young  man
use drugs, because they think  that  will  be  cool  guys.  But  they  don’t
understand, that it’s wrong. Some of them can’t stop that, and  they  become
dependent on drugs. And they commit different serious crimes,  because  they
need some money to buy drugs.
     Youth is also the time to meet your  first  love.  It  is,  of  course,
wonderful, but, as it is widely known that first love often has  an  unhappy
end, this also increases young people’s problems.
     We also face the problem how to spend our free time. We can  do  it  in
different ways. Some of teen-ages spend their free time in  different  night
clubs. Other young people spend their free time in the streets.
     Another typical problem for most  of  the  teen-ages  is  problem  with
their parents. Leo Tolstoy said: “All families are happy in the similar  way
and unhappy in its own way”. And happiness  or  unhappiness  of  any  family
mostly depends on relations in it.
     So many families so many family relations. Each family establishes  its
own relations in its own way. It has its own traditions & customs & its  own
unwritten constitution including rights & duties  of  every  member  of  the
family. The level of democracy is  also  different  in  different  families,
which mostly depends on the viewpoints  of  adults  usually  not  coinciding
with a child’s point of view. So the  problem  of  misunderstanding  becomes
urgent. Some people can it generation gap. It as a rule sharpens as soon  as
a child approaches his or her difficult teens. And  both  sides  (parents  &
children) should be patient & tactful & it’s the only  way  to  settle  down
all the problems & stay friends.
     Parents say that its difficult  to  discipline  children.  But  experts
state that parents will get the best results if they try to prevent or  stop
misbehavior in natural, logical & when possible  fun  ways.  Here  are  some
pieces of advice to help them keep their kids in line.
     So, as you see, it is very difficult to be young  nowadays,  as,  need,
it always was. But you only can be young once, & some wonderful  things  can
happen only when you’re young. So, it is be to enjoy youth while it lasts.
