The problems of

students nowadays
There is no better time we can have during our
life-time than our adolescence and youth.
Adolescence is
filled with
intellectual and
emotional changes
in addition to the
major biological and
physical ones . It is
a time of discovery
of self and one’s
relationship to the
 Abstract thinking ability takes place
during adolescence. In early adolescence
thinking ability is still concrete. By the end
of this period individuals are able to fully
comprehend abstract concepts. They think
of good arguments for their positions. As
they begin to think abstractly , adolescents
are more likely to question things that
were unquestionable before.
 For positive
development , parents
and adults who work
with adolescence should
alow them some
freedom to explore their
beliefs . Their
questioning nature
makes parenting and
working with them a
challenge . That is why
parents and teachers
should keep a balance
between their support
and love and their
boundaries and limits
that they set with them.
 Experimenting with risk behaviors is also a
normal part of adolescence . Still , no one
grows up without being a youngster who thinks
he or she knows best when it comes to making
decisions.
Most of us prefer to make the decision that
will somehow affect our life , on our own , do
what we think to be the right thing for us.
 As we grow up we seem
to think that our
experience are the best ,
ignoring those who might
really think clearly and
We just want to learn from our
own methods, rather than
regret having allowed
somebody else’s advice.
To my mind there is no perfect way
to make students do what they
should do, by force. Education is a
pains-taking effort about learning
to be free and choose. The teacher
could be a facilitator, able to
transform an uninterested person
 An apparently
boring topic can be
turned into a magic
guidance in the vast
field of knowledge. It
can easily be noticed
that some teachers
are old-fashioned
and their methods of
teaching are
obsolete , which
resulted in
completely
unbearable boredom
at classes. On the
other hand , a few of
them are willing to
At school, most children are
bored by the lessons which
they see as irrelevant to life as
they perceive it. Live is about
having fun, and having fun
 Or, at the other extreme , school is fiercely
competitive, and students are pushed by
parents to achieve at all costs.
The youngsters have to respect the elders
and admire them and learn from them.
 Unfortunately, the youth has
learnt to question the wisdom of
its elders. Money and materialism
 No wonder there is a drug
abuse on a scale never seen
before. No wonder so many
children seek the help of
psychiatrists . What are they
to fill the emptiness of their
 Psychologists say that
the” effective parents are
firm and consistent , not
harsh or rigid”.
In general they
encourage the child to act
responsibly , to think ,
and to make good
decisions . Such parents
balance their own rights
 They control their children’s behavior
in a caring , responsive, non
authoritarian way.”Do it for this reason
” , they say.
This style produces children who are
competent , self- controled ,
Let’s agree that young people
are after all human beings :
people just like their elders.
 There is only one difference between an
old man and a young one : the young man
has a glorious future before him and the
old one has a splendid future behind him
