This will affect he victims’ household a great deal because it will enlighten youth who are currently living in unhealthy/abusive households to recognize that this abrupt behavior is not normal and is illegal. The support of these programs will also help to groom and prepare youth for when they are ready to sustain a healthy mature relationship to be able to distinguish right from wrong and will also bring about less intervention from the courts.

In today’s modern and fast paced society, teenagers have had to rush through life and begin adulthood earlier than the generations before. Many teens have also been expected to make this step in life without the help of a parent or mature adult, because they are too busy with their own lives. The media has replaced parents’ jobs of teaching their children about life, and the media surrounds teens with mature themes which affect teenagers in a negative way. Many teenagers have lost a section of their lives by having to skip to adulthood where they are unprotected from many negative parts of this world. I agree with David Elkind that “teenagers have lost their privileged position” and that unlike generations of teenagers before, this generation
These two causes may also lad to the rise of the problem. To begin with, I totally agree that lack of education may lead to alcohol abuse. In Mindy Sink’s article, she mentions that kids are away from home for the first time and not taught to drink responsibly. Parents and schools play an important role in educating their children and students. Since teenagers are immature to make their own decision, it is vital for adults to inculcate a correct attitude towards drinking.
Because of that, teenagers lose their sense of security and self – esteem and every one of them needs a little of those in them. Within the teenage society, there are different types of cliques. Sometimes, it’s hard for teenagers to be a part of those cliques because these different cliques don’t normally interact
Real friends will accept the way you are, and would never pressure you into a decision which you know is foolish. School systems are the central locations for negative peer pressure and many teens feel they have to change who they are just to "fit in". Fashion has become a major deciding factor in the appearance, and popularity of todays teenagers. Many feel if they dont get the latest nikes, or the coolest torn up jeans they will have trouble being accepted when around other peers. Schools have become more of a contest then a learning environment.
Therefore unlike the Daily Mail, which delights in demonising teenagers, The Observer encourages people to “try a little love instead”. Indeed if everyone tried a “little love” it would not only support teenagers but it would encourage them to behave and to well at school which would ultimately make them more successful. In conclusion the representation of teenagers in the media is completely unfair and wrong. I believe that we should all give teenagers more support and less criticism, including the Daily Mail. Being a teenager is a very difficult process as your body dramatically changes and you are subject to over-whelming hormones.
The program gives you challenges and opportunities to become a better citizen. The instructors are not like teachers, they put in an effort for you to actually try and build up. You do leadership tasks; you help younger teens, participate in things that other teens don't get to participate in. The class isn't boring, you’re always learning about new things, we do weekly current events, and uniform wear. Wearing uniform teaches us responsibility; we have to make sure that our uniform is in order, and has everything on correctly.
This comes in four forms: school, family, peer groups and the media. The family is the most important form as it’s from them we learn about our gender roles, language, habits and beliefs. The next most important is school as they reinforcement the repercussions of misbehaving, for instance when you don’t do homework you will get a detention. During this time we learn – subconsciously - the hidden the curriculum: norms, values and how to act. Peer groups also have a great effect on our behaviour as they can cause pressure for us to conform.
Public Policy Analysis II Mike jones CJA/464 2013 Public Policy Analysis II It is important for young people to have a positive setting, a safe place, a comfort zone where they can learn to be positive and productive member of society. Sometimes kids do not find that positive setting at home or even school. There can be a number of issues at home such as domestic violence, drugs use, and verbal abuse just to name a few. Even the school setting can be a difficult place for young adults. Problems such as bullying, academic stress, fitting in with the crowd, pressures to go to college, or pressure to find a career can affect the youth in a negative way.
