There are many problems among young people. They always say they are growing up. They can do the things they like. They drive cars quickly. They wear strange clothes. They like loud music. Many people think they are not good. But some of their parents don’t think so.
Their parents say, “Our children are very good. They like popular music, and they play it in their own rooms. They help in the house. You know they feel bored sometimes because there’s nothing interesting in the neighbourhood, no clubs and no sports. They don’t have anything to do.”
A teacher says that he thinks most young people are very kind. He thinks that it’s not bad for young people to like loud music because it can give them lots of energy and make them feel excited. Also, a lot of young people work very hard at school, and they can get good jobs later.
Lewis, a fourteen-year-old boy said, “I have much homework to do. I felt tired all day. But loud music can make me happy. It helps me do well in all my lessons.”
