There is so much potential out there in young people and they aren't getting the right information or being encouraged in the right ways. This is our duty as a society.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I think there's a lot of pressure on young people to really be the thing that everyone is telling them that they are, opposed to discovering it for themselves.
I think the reason why a lot of young people are such screw ups... is oftentimes they didn't have the luxury I had of forming important relationships and opinions and life experiences before having success.
Young people are this awesome, creative, hopeful untapped resource out there.
I enjoy seeing young people being interested in what they can do.
I think we're seeing privacy diminish, not by laws... but by young people who don't seem to value their privacy.
It is easy to overlook the importance of the young in underdeveloped countries. It is the natural course for nations, and diplomats, and those who publish newspapers, to speak to the established order. Seeking out the young requires a conscious effort.
I think it's important to give young people the freedom to follow their ideas and pursue their interests.
There's something missing about how we're informing the youngsters coming along about what matters in the world. We teach them the numbers and the letters, but we fail to communicate the importance of our connection to the living world.
Young people understand the world. They should be listened to on matters of politics and world organization. But they know nothing of their own lives.
Young people are just as attracted to the truth as they are convenience and expediency.
