How often do we hear the expression “youth problems”! They are currently (as, however, earlier) are considered relevant and topical. The question naturally arises: why do such problems take place in society: for what reason do young men and women start drinking, smoking, using drugs and contrasting themselves with society as a whole? To open the veil, try to plunge into the essence of the matter.
First of all, the problems of youth, according to psychologists, are “from childhood”. We all had dads and mothers, we were all raised in some way, which could not but affect future behavior. Almost all the troubles that befell boys and girls in society often lie in the lack of parental love and attention that they were deprived of in childhood. What does a teenager usually do in such a situation? He will look for those people who will listen to him and, as he thinks, will understand. Therefore, all sorts of groups, movements, even sects arise. Today there are many such examples. In this way, young people contrast themselves with adults and try to attract attention in at least some way. Of course, she succeeds in this, but far from in the plane to which she strove.
Youth problems lie not only in social behavior. For example, one of such situations is the issue of education, employment and housing in countries around the world. Young people do not have adequate legal protection to ensure compulsory employment or housing if people decide to start a family. Unfortunately, these issues are considered topical and do not have proper resolution in the laws of states.
The problems of youth in Russia, however, as in other countries, have led to the fact that youth culture has begun to develop actively , however, state support in its direction consists only in the publication of all kinds of declarations. Its development proceeds in difficult conditions, because many concepts have already lost their relevance, and new ones have not yet been formed. Among the problems that arise in the way of girls and boys, we can name an active search for cultural development, which should be carried out within the country and society. In connection with changes in state and public foundations, much that was considered acceptable earlier is now not applicable. But new methods have not yet been invented.
So, there are the main problems of youth, among which are:
- Social (education, cultural development, labor, etc.).
- Socio-cultural (search for the meaning of life, spirituality, decline in the prestige of education).
- Spiritual and moral.
Today, when the obvious division of society by social status has appeared, the problem of the “rich” and the “poor” has become acute. Complexes appeared regarding appearance, clothes and other things.
Young people are trying to somehow stand out, which is achieved with the help of appearance, because the inner world is not so firmly formed. And with the help of paraphernalia of various kinds, one can attract attention much faster than revealing the soul.
The problems of youth lie in the fact that they do not have the experience that adults have, because the first, in essence, are children who do not have strong knowledge of the world and the ways of living in it. They are guided by their desires, which are not always adequate and justified.
In general, young people fall under the influence of modern society, which causes a certain imbalance of its spirituality with the accepted canons. As for the legislative framework, here it is not so protected as to be sure of tomorrow. Hence the spiritual quest and confusion arise.
