MORALITY OF TEENAGERS NOWADAYS
Teenagers can be define as a young person aged between 13 and 19 years old. A teenager is a transitional stage of physical and mental human development that occurs between childhood and adulthood. This transition involves biological example pubertal, social and psychological changes, though the biological or physiological ones are the easiest to measure objectively. Because of that, there are many good and bad things about the teenagers that we can relate.
As teenagers, the best thing that we can do is to live life to the fullest. We don't need to think about money and other things. All we have to do is to think about ourselves and our studies. Nowadays, we can see many teenagers grow in the world of entertainment and sports. Besides that, teenagers nowadays are rich with the technology. So they just have to use the technology to be more successful than before.
The good things also come to the bad things. Moral values and being kind, in the past, were easily seen in most teenagers. Majority of the youths then learnt respect, politeness, serious thought, decency, correctness of behavior, honesty and righteousness from a young age, and had enough self-discipline to hold these values. But nowadays everything is changing and developing in an incredible speed. These moral values and self-discipline hold by the teenagers are gradually diminishing over the years. This lack of discipline and self-control is becoming more and more prominent over time. Even the simplest of morals say, car, consideration and respect are fading away over the years. Youngsters even engage in decadent behavior by taking pleasure in inflicting torture upon less able people. Even a simple display of respect like offering the elderly a seat on the bus is being replaced by scenarios of students competing with them for seats.
Furthermore, teenagers nowadays are really freedom and shallow. Because of freedom they like to do what they want and to try new things to their selves like engaging in pre-marital sex. That's why a lot of girls get pregnant at an early age; both genders lose their virginity really early. And girls seem to like guys who look good. Teenagers now have artificial love, it's all about lust and not love, saying "I love you" is nothing more than a compliment to get someone in the bed.
There are many good and bad things to be teenagers nowadays. The teenagers need people to advise them, guide them and to lead and show them the right path. The correct directions given to teenagers can help them to be good and useful men of tomorrow.
