Analysis of Youth Yearning
Youth Yearning more than ever before
Young people forced to find future
Before mature enough to realize it.
Different world than mine or even
Yours when growing up.
Being cheated out of their dreamworld and
childhood.
More understanding needed withe these young
people.
Have knowledge but cannot identify
With family life,values,ideals
You and I had.
Some are defiant to schools,churches
policeman because they are lacking
respect.
Now where is the fragmented family.
We may and have paid for this permissiveness.
Lack of absolutes and
God is dead nonsense.
