One of the biggest problems which affect our society is the lack of respect that

young people have for other people. These guys dont have values to follow: they
think that insulting, hurting and hitting other people is fine. They dont understand
how much the can hurt other people.
Every time we watch TV or read newspapers, we find cases of young people
who have behaved violently towards other guys or other people in general. For
example there are people who find funny hurting the guys who go to the same school
as them only for stupid reasons. They think that hurting them physically or
psychologically is fine, they dont understand that that boys or girls will suffer for
many years remembering what happened in his or her past. There are also young
people who think they are superior to others and so they think that the life of these
people isnt important. An example of this behaviour is given by the guys who
burned an Indian man only to have fun. There are also guys who dont accept the fact
that they cant have everything, so if a girl rejects them they hit and rape her.
Personally I think that the first reason for this behaviour can be found in the
absence of their parents while they grow up. Their parents dont bring them up very
well, dont give them good examples or true values, so these guys dont understand
what is right and what is wrong. Another way to reduce this behaviour is introducing
good teachers in schools: unfortunately very often teachers are the first people who
give bad examples.
I think that it will be hard to change the situation because nowadays most
young people are arrogant, violent and evil but I think that the families and the State
should fight for this cause. We cant accept that our children will be hurt in the worst
ways only because they are some ways different. A society where a child is criticized
only because he isnt cool enough or because he has different origins is not a real
society.
