The biggest problem our youth facing today is the generalized branding of the youth based on the analysis of a small minority of dis-functional youth among them. And also it is such a shame that the author uses the word illusion for the high ideals many youth posses. The author narrates the personality profile of a cult member in the following way “The personality profile of an adolescent susceptible to cult overtures might include identity confusion or crisis; alienation from family; weak cultural, religious, and community ties; and feelings of powerlessness in a seemingly out-of-control world. ” This is a ridiculous assumption by the author. This assumption shows author's shallow knowledge about new religious movements and it's members.

Erikson identifies this period in stage 5 of his psychosocial model; identity v role confusion – where young people struggle to belong and to be accepted and affirmed, and yet also to become individuals. It has been said that adolescents are particularly egocentric, preoccupied with their own needs, inconsiderate of the needs of others, and with an exaggerated sense of their own importance in the world. Child psychologist David Elkind (1967) stated “adolescent egocentrism includes a belief by teenagers that they are special and unique”.
