Youth is a special time for any person: he or she is no longer a child and not yet an adult. And young people have some problems special to this period of life. One of them is the problem of finding oneself. Some teenagers still remain in a condition of Great Uncertainty: they don’t have particular interests or hobbies; there are no particular aims in their lives. That’s why they are in a constant search, which sometimes makes them choose the wrong way, for example drug addiction. I think if a person has a goal in life, or there is something in the world that interests him or her very much, that person is lucky. A wide range of interest is a sign of an intelligent and broad-minded person. That’s why almost all young people try different sides of life in order to find something which attracts them most of all.
The problem that alarms me most of all is the problem of planning my future career. It is essential to have a good job. And to get a good job you have to be well-educated I can’t enter any university without good knowledge, for example of English, so it is necessary to pay for special lessons which mean heavy expenses.
After graduating from the university you have another problem. How to find a good job? Unemployment is a sore point in our country. Even qualified professionals often cannot find a good job. they have to think a lot about the possibility of finding a good job after finishing my education.
. They have so many problems. The main ones are: hard drags, diseases, such as AIDS, problems with adults, early pregnancy and of course violence and crime among youth.
Our world is facing a drugs crisis. The greater part of teenagers are using, or have used drugs. This is the main problem in the world, I think.
Because of drugs, boys and girls become angry. They loose their connections with their parents, and misunderstand them. They have a lot of communicative problems. Teenagers don’t have enough money to buy drugs, so they must steal. And using drugs evokes such a dangerous illness as AIDS. Drug addicts aware of their illness and with this their lives end.
To my mind our government should take the first step in stopping this problem and prevent the selling of drugs. Besides our government should lead different educative programs, such as “Stop AIDS”, or something like that. They should have dreams about their future career. And even if they are given drugs, they should just say “NO”.
