  • Today’s youth

  • In recent years, there has been concern that youth attitudes have changed as living standards have risen and that young people have become less empathetic.
  • But is this true?
  • It cannot be denied that our world is quite different than before.
  • Though it is true that the new technologies and ways of communication play an important role, one should bear in mind that a lot of people needs help so much as before or even more.
  • What is particularly noticeable is that young people are self-centred.
    • As a result of this, the “Me”-generation had sometimes no empathy.
    • Their lives goes only around themselves: their virtual profiles, their virtual friends and photos and videos for them.
  • The media is also everywhere and is never enough.
  • Young people need constant stimulation and this factor could be account for the obsession with material possessions.
  • It’s difficult to accept the idea that both are new characteristics for young people.
  • But we cannot forget that the parents from the last century had already complained about the same topics.
    • On the other hand it is important to think about how many people volunteer a year in their country or another, only to help people with problems: ill people, old people or kids.
  • It seems to me that young people are probably much the same as they have always been.
  • Only the perception of it seems to have changed.
