These negative impacts can interfere with the healthy growth of teenagers. The only concern of a teenager should be educating their self, to start to make sense about the world and the country they live in. This kind of shows is coming in between the education of teens. Not only the education but teenagers start stressing about their self-image and how they look. This shows not only spend their time for nothing but put pressure on teens to illustrate how to survive in the real-life reality.
Society has made an effect on every person, it could affect you positively or negatively. Mildred, Montag’s wife, in the book Fahrenheit 451, by Ray Bradbury, is not the world’s best wife. Society has brought her down to this level because the community does not want the civilians to be thinking for themselves. It is as if the generation is being controlled with what they are able to say, or even do. These people are not allowed to live their own lives because of the fact that the society doesn’t want them to do so.
The organization was also quite scattered in making the reader have a hard time following the text. Bruni’s evidence was relevant to the response but seemed to be the only thing in the response. In conclusion, Frank Bruni, was not successful with his response to supporting over-worked teenagers. The main reason for his ineffectiveness being he did not support his ideals with actions or reasoning, because nothing can be done to fix this issue of teenagers having to do more to be successful in today’s
PEER PRESSURE Peer pressure, a term that may or may not have affected you when you were a teenager but as a teenager myself, peer pressure has definitely made an impact on my life, be it good and bad. In the age of 10 to 19, teenagers tend to have the most difficult times. Teenagers feel peer pressure everyday in their lives, whether it’s in school or outside. During the teenage period, teens try to find their identity and differentiate from their parents by joining peer groups and sometimes these peer groups may offer bad advices and negative choices to teens.
Teens can relate to the dystopian movie “The Maze Runner” because, in this movie the main characters are teens, so that can make this movie more appealing and relatable to them. Another reason is that they are trapped somewhere and they have to work together to find a way out, some teens could relate this to their lives because sometimes you are caught in difficult situations that forces you to work together with other to accomplish your goal and accomplish the situation, just like in “The Maze Runner”. Additionally, in this movie everyone takes care of everyone, and everyone does jobs so everyone can survive. So teens might relate to this because, some people are in groups or in the home lives or anything where they have to help others and do whatever it takes to make sure they're doing their part. Consequently, I think these are some ways that teens find this dystopian movie appealing and relatable to their modern day
Not all teenagers shoplift, have parties, and disrespect their parents. There are causes for rebellion and defiance to get out of hand. The main cause is a struggling home life. Again, teenagers are not legal adults, so whatever their home life is going through, they are going to have to be apart of it.
Teenagers are unpredictable and emotional human equipped with an undeveloped brain full of hormones. Falling in love easily, doing dangerous things, and not preparing for the future, teenagers need to be taught the importance of responsible risk-taking. Two perfect examples of teenage actions and consequences are Romeo and Juliet. Romeo and Juliet’s behavior can be explained through the science of the teen brain and its development.
Friends are the family one chooses for himself. In many cases, close friends are involved or interested in the same types of activities. Though often heralded as the maker of friendships, these shared activities often are not. Similar interest may bring people together, but what makes friends stay together is a sense of belonging and support. Most people find friends who can provide for them something that they do not receive from their families.
The life of a Teenager of this society tends to be kept and shown to be over protected by the Olds. Honestly, I’ve notice from people around me who parents are strict while being wily about everything they should not be exploiting. On the other hand, the Teenagers are being safeguarded because the story states “The Olds like to say its because we are children” (Link 674), that statement shows Teenagers somewhat despises hard they are looked down on, but they do not understand that the Olds just care and love hard, when it comes to their children. In addition, the Teenagers are viewed in the society as being irresponsible; They show this with the incidents and recreations everyone be involved in; For example, “Plus, the Olds got mad about one of the chairs […] The unicorn broke the back to kindling”
Family crisis has caused the social control in children to be neglected. Parents who often argued will not be able to nurture and educate their children properly. This situation becomes worst when the parents are busy with the tasks at office until they ignore their responsibilities to watch over their children’s behavior. Social problems among teenagers become an increasingly worrying phenomenon that teenagers go through such as early pregnancy, suicidal and drug abuse. However, there are many helpful organizations trying to overcome the social problems among teenagers.
This can be seen when Christopher’s deficits in verbal and non-verbal communicative behaviors add to his impairments in social-emotional reciprocity as his inability to interpret other people’s expressions, gestures, jokes, and other methods of communication enhance his inability to form and engage in reciprocal relationships. Due to his impairments in social communication, his parents were not able to completely understand Christopher’s behaviors and Christopher was not able to understand his parent’s perspectives. Therefore, his parents were not completely cognizant of their son’s triggers to the extent that they should have been. Their inability to read their child’s social-communication signals disabled them from interacting with their child in a more responsive way.
Society’s struggles often go unrecognized by the people standing by. Many people are afraid to act upon a difficult situation such as: someone getting bullied, or noticing someone’s purse getting stolen, and doing nothing about it. The flaws from the 21st century generation that is learned from ancestors, such as someone’s neglect and lack of empathy. Both “Richard Cory” and “Musee des Beaux Arts” emphasize the importance of apathy and empathy.
“After Twelve, age isn’t important. Most of us even lose track of how old we are... What’s important is the preparation for adult life and the training you’ll receive.” Growing up without any problems in life is impossible, teens going through different experiences must learn to handle these situations, even if it means asking for the support and training of adults and peers. Growing up can be tough.
Difference, a point or way in which people or things are not the same, is evidently absent in society today. Adolescence is a key period in one’s life where reasoning skills, abstract thinking, and the ability to use “meta-cognition” are developed. Meta-cognition involves “being able to think about how one is perceived by others.” (Morgan, 26). It is no wonder why teens are consumed with the thought of their social class and what label one falls into.
Teenager’s relationships compared to the 15th century however are very different relationships. There are, some similarities but they are mainly different. People today don’t marry at the age they use to. I think that parents should be involved in who their children are dating because their children are young and aren’t good at making big decisions, especially involving relationships. Parents shouldn’t be way too involved in their relationships, but they should know what’s going on.
