YOUTH PROBLEMS IN RUSSIA
(Молодежные проблемы в России)
Bagautdinova Karina, school № 2 (Lyabipova A.M.)
Young people naturally have their problems. That is a feature common to epochs but today's youth problems involve crimes. Juvenile crime, in other words • portrayed as a function of economic class, parental neglect, narcotic addict!' S boredom, unemployment and the abundance of alcohol. '
The juvenile crime seems to come naturally when there is certain defect ' the society.
Some surveys have measured the correlation between adolescent crime and family problems. "Ten times as many juvenile delinquents come from an atmospher of vulgarity or heavy drinking as from a normal environment", a criminologist said In our locality there are many boys of my age who dropped out of school before the 10th standard. Many of them come from broken families. They don't believe in ethics. They live "the free life", drank, and stole neighbor's good.
There are many youth like them in our today's society of Russia .Unfortunately, the government and the society do not concerned for the welfare and amelioration of those unfortunate youths. Instead of uplifting them, people cut them off from their society so called "good" and treat them as "bad" and call them "garbage". Everybody seems to forget that in future their places in "the good society", as they named, will be replaced by them. Even teachers divide us into "good" and "bad" based on appearance.
In our classroom most of the teachers do not want to pay attention to any comment from students they named "bad". They treat them like untouchable in the class .It is rather unfortunate that some teachers make fun of them in the classroom. Dividing the students он their appearance is a very common defect of today's teachers which is also included as a main defect of today's society. Such view of the society also naturally causes the youth problems. (Lack of proper education)
After leaving school and college, hundreds of thousands of youth of Russia have no chance of obtaining employment. Neither the government nor the society offers any alternative for the unemployed youths. Lacks of income naturally lead to various crimes. It is not only the youth in the sense that causes the problems but also the weak policy of the government to govern the youths.
One teenage drag addict who dropped out of school in the 10th standard sai "Soon after I dropped out of school, I entered to the world of drugs. The world о drugs is a lonely world of mental frustration, false happiness, and sickness. You en it so simply with your first exciting smoke of marijuana .The next steps seem to с naturally, and before you know it you're hooked on heroin." , _,
When my family discovered about me, they treated me even worse before and the surrounding avoided me. Now I need a good future with P e education and good job but how? I wanted to start a new life and wanted to с ^ my education but it is unfortunate I have no strength to become a real person, of uplifting me, the society stigmatized me.
