Teenagers today are fortunate enough to have all the luxuries and comforts which were perhaps missing in older days. Today
we find young children using latest equipment and ultra-modern gadgets to their advantage like mobiles, laptops or palm-tops, i-pods and computer net. They not only receive good quality education but also firm support from their parents, guardians, school teachers and their well wishers. But it is surprising to note that most of the
teenagers today have their own worries and tensions revolving around their moribund lives.
Completing education is not enough, but after getting degrees and diplomas in professional fields, it their worry of getting a good job placement. Would they be successful in life! Although academic norms are completed in a well deserved manner but there is no assurance that they will be absorbed in the suitable workplaces as the competition is very high.
It is the parent’s health which is another cause of
concern for the teenagers. There is always a fear which grips their minds of loosing someone they love so dearly. Perhaps this sorrow is very difficult to be overcome by them and they are not able to come to terms easily.
Most of the time of our young boys and girls is spent in front of the mirror. They want to adorn themselves in such a way as to attract every eye. In their desire to look mod and attractive, they go crazy for new fashion. Just look at their hair do, cuts and wear both inner and outer. More often they are found not in libraries or book-stores but it is the beautician for a facial. Teenagers today also have a deep concern for their own personal health which seems to be bogged down by the pressure of life.
How the future generation shapes up only time will tell. But it is important what kind of leadership and governance the country shall inherit. Therefore it will not be correct to dismiss the concerns and problems and worries of teenagers from our minds as it will give way to despair and they shall feel helpless.
