We will experience different stages in life,and teens is one of the life stage.But teens of twenty years ago and twenty years after will difinately be different.The world is changing everyday.Many years ago,a pair of normal running shoes or a coke might satisfly us in high school but look at the teens in nowaday,it will be totally different story.They always want something but on the other hand,they don't know waht they are lloking for.They want to have their own way of thinking but sometimes they don't know what they are thinking about.Anyway, share about your opinion and see how others will respond to your opinion?

Well i feel the teens today are much attracted to fashion and trends. And some of them stepping into wrong ways. But i cant blame them totally, its how they can be brought up lies everything. However, i can also seen youngsters taking up new challenges and roles bravely and confidently grow into new era!

Not at all living up to their true potential. Most teens these days are still following the crowd and they aren't being individuals or going outside of the box. Many teens are not leading, they are following. Then again, most people in America are following and not leading.

Yes i really don't know what i want now..
I'm 21 years old and i seriously afraid of my future because of the growing population and increase in technology..
If u look 8 years before, there were no mobile phones and it will be a rare thing to see a laptop..
i even got my first mobile when i was 19 years old..
But now days u can see a lot of young people who are 13 0r 14 years old are having a mobile phone and they are texting..
Miley Cyrus's Hannah Montanna is an example, she was 14 in the tv series abd she was given a mobile and even jackson is having a mobile..
The increase in technology has let me to think some thing higher and i don't know what i'm thinking and where it will take me..???

Theirs nothing permanent in life.
The only permanent in life is change.
Yes your right things are really inferior if its made a decade ago.
A big example are movies and games.
Decades ago. The effects are so obvious that it makes me laugh when I watch old movies. And the games are so basic in graphics that I don't know why many younger a decade ago love to play this kind of game.
I think in near future when technology are so advance.
Young generation will also laugh on our favorite movies and our current games.

i am 25 old, i have no idea about the behavior of last century ,but i know nowadays teenages and youth like stars beacause they are beautiful or smart or a wonderful voice,and latest fashion,dressing clothes which could display our personality,even though we don't have working to afford all necessities.i don't know whether this is right or not,but all people aroud me do the same thing .

i find teenagers lack respect for their elders more, i think that is cause they can get away with more cause of the rules changing and they get more protection. when many of us would have been happy, wearing a t-shirt and jeans now it's more you've got to be in the latest fashion.
like my mum mentioned the other night, younger people don't want to start at the bottom of the ladder now and work up. like they want the big tv and entertainment system etc, straight up instead of working for it. like you would have even 10 yrs ago.

I agree with you that our youth is becoming more needy and attached to material posessions such as cell phones and televisions and other things like that. Unfortunately I grew up amongst them and I hope that these people can someday grow out of the high school phase and start to think about ways to improve our planet instead of wasting it's resources making worthless crap.
It's not just the youth that is confused on what they want though, that's why we have crappy congressmen trying to run countries and doing a terrible job of it. If people truly knew what they wanted maybe we would have peace or something a little bit better then our current situation. I hope that we can someday all come together and realize a better way of living.

The teenagers of today and the teenagers of 5 or 20 years ago will never be same and the teenagers from 20 years from now will also be different. But there will always be something in common between the teenagers of all time. The constant factor will be their attitude and their passion for new things. The will to have the latest fashion of there own time. The mindset of thinking that they know almost everything and their parents are oldstock. However these thoughts changes in all persons as we grow older.
