  • And most important of all although they can imitate, they can't teach or build on the achievements others have made - unlike more successful humans.

      This web page is very interesting because it demonstrates the adult perspective on teenagers. Not once did they interview a teen to know what their lifestyle was really about. According to this article, the main problem with teenagers is that they have problems of obesity, binge drinking and promiscuity.

      This web page is very interesting because it very clearly identifies the modern teenage culture while somewhat comparing it to what the past culture was. It explains that teens act mostly to do whatever their parents tell them not to do. They are driven to take risks to find that independence from their parents. Fashion is also changing very quickly. Loyalty is a crucial part for teenage friendships. Common interests are very important, but loyalty is the key element.
