There are many young people in our country. Each of them has one's own view point on their life and their future.

There are many problems which are common for all young people. For Example: how to spend their free time, what to do after school, choosing a profession, how to deal with girl and boy-friends and so on.

The problem number one of the young people is the problem of fathers and sons. All young people want to be independent, they want their parents to listen to their opinion, not to interfere in their private life.

Some parents neglect their children, because they can`t find a common language with each other. Many problems were hushed up, but now we can speak openly about them.

I think that the most difficult and serious problem of modern teen- agers is drug- habit. Some young men use drugs, because they think that they will be cool guys. And they do different serious offences, because they need some money to buy drugs.

There are also many other problems: alcoholism, smoking and so on.

There are many youth organizations in our country, which unite young men on different principles. The members of every organization have own world outlooks. Each of them has their own moral qualities. There are some informal organizations, for example: skinheads, hippies, punks and so on. Now there is the problem of misunderstanding between different youth groups.

They also face the problem how to spend their free time. They can do it in different ways. Some of teenagers spend their free time in different night clubs. Other young people spend their free time in the streets.

Young people play an important role in the modern society. Grown ups must remember that teenagers are the future of our country and help them to solve their problems.
