Generation Gap Task 7

The teenagers today have too much freedom and less responsibility compared to the past. In the past, teenagers had always been given more chores and actually acted more like adults and did what adults did, so they can't complain that today more difficult for them(phr.).


The young people don't even know how much freedom they have. The teenagers today want to be more responsible and they feel mature. For the first time in their lives, they have many difficult choices and decisions to make. If they choose the wrong choices, the next time they will be more experienced and choose the better choice. In addition it's (a) great preparation for the hard life out there.
Especially(ww. - You can't start a sentence with this word.) when the teenagers want to go out with their friends, or go to a party and their parents disagree, they get angry and don't understand that everything their parents say is for their own good. - how is this part connected to the first part of this paragraph. It's as if you are saying 2 different things at once.



Another situation is in school, when there is an important test. The children prefer not to study very seriously because they know, there will be another chance to be tested, that's why they fail and don't succeed in school. They must realize that in real life there are not many chances like today in their school, because of this the responsibility is more important(phr, - what exactly do you mean? Explain that teens should be taught to be reponsible and study properly for tests).


In conclusion, the teenagers should be taught by their parents that they are not so busy(phr. - what do you mean?) and show them the great freedom they have compared to their commitment and prepare them for the real life.
Better, but there is still work to do.
