Youth has always been regarded as the nicest period of human lives. It is the time for romance and friendship, emotional and intellectual discoveries. It is a period when young people can be carefree without the burden of responsibility which brings the parenthood or daily winning of one’s bread. However, youth also brings some specific problems, as in this period they “struggle” to fit themselves into society. Young people have to make the most important decisions that can have fatal consequences for their future life. These decisions demand personal maturity and personal experience which young people do not have.
The most important psychological problem of youth is personal relationships.
Young people can only become grown-ups when they broaden social contacts. During adolescence, friendship with peers help smooth the transition childhood to adulthood. Teens begin to feel and act independently from their families, and friends play a more important role in their lives and can influence their decisions. However, it is sometimes a problem for children and young people to make and keep friends.
Perhaps the most fundamental problem faced by young people today is unemployment. Because of the universal downturn in the economy combined with technology, particular jobs and skills are made unnecessary. Therefore, many youth today are experiencing problems in getting jobs. Young people today have certain needs and aspirations, and unemployment means financial worries, frustration and discouragement.
