The new generation that has
grown within this technological revolution is lonely, with lack of empathy... but behind the hedonistic, consumerist,
amoral, irresponsible image this new generation reflects, there is a very
strong silence.
Through the most exciting stage of life, the young ones are
facing adaptation, acceptance, adventures and misadventures, joys and sorrows,
hopes and concerns.
The new generation owns the
technological revolution, and faces a very broad universe of distraction. They
are more likely to travel and interact with others... to learn more and develop
their own conclusions of life, and even though they have access to this amazing world of opportunities and information, they feel lonely, insecure, and incomplete. It’s becoming an era of consumerism, with no sense of duty and sacrifice.
They need affection sustained in time, someone who actually listen to them,
accept them and understand their uniqueness.
Now days, these young adolescents
are being diagnosed with anxiety, stress and depression, insecurity, attention disorders,
low self-esteem, and so on.
Families today overprotect their children, and teens react by trying to prove they are older adopting
risky behaviors such as drinking alcohol, taking drugs or having sex at earlier
ages, just to reaffirm their maturity.
The generation that is currently taking place has a high level of knowledge and thousands of opportunities to become productive, but still there is a need of sharing, friendship, trust, empathy, love.
