Like children, adolescents need a framework. Otherwise they can't cope. When someone has unlimited freedom, it means there's nobody who cares what they're doing.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
When they are assailed by despair, young people should let universal concerns into their lives.
There's a freedom to being young that is harder to come by as time goes on.
Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has.
If society fits you comfortably enough, you call it freedom.
Just the concept of personal freedom within a democracy, for instance, is a relatively young idea - only about 300 years old in this country.
I've never understood why people consider youth a time of freedom and joy. It's probably because they have forgotten their own.
As people grow up and they want more freedom, it's on an individual basis, children want to have more freedom, you've got to allow that, so how do you balance it. I would say let it evolve, move as quickly or slowly as people would like to move.
Children should have enough freedom to be themselves - once they've learned the rules.
People are responsible adults at home. Why do we suddenly transform them into adolescents with no freedom when they reach the workplace?
We're allowed as adults to create a life that we like. Kids don't have that freedom.
