Essay “21st Century Teenagers”

In the 21st century, teenagers have access to an enormous amount of technology, which has
dramatically changed the way they communicate, learn and socialize. They are exposed to vast
amounts of information on the Internet, which can be both a blessing and a curse.
In addition, today's teenagers are more aware of real life and its problems than ever before.
With the rise of social media, they can voice their opinions on a global scale and are actively
involved in advocating for change on issues that matter to them.
However, 21st century teenagers also face unique challenges. The pressure to excel
academically and socially can lead to stress and anxiety. These problems often lead to suicide
as described by the teenagers in the watched video.
Teenagers also describe that they often have long periods of depression in which they no
longer want to do anything.
Teachers must come to their aid by paying attention to them, parents who should talk to
their children at home, but also the government through various events dedicated to these
difficulties faced by teenagers.
In conclusion, 21st century teenagers are a dynamic and diverse group, facing both
opportunities and challenges unique to their generation.
