4 Are teenagers a problem? Adults often see the age between 13 and 19 as difficult. According to the older generation teenagers are:

5 - Lazy (ленивые) - appallingly (ужасно) rude to their betters and elders - skeptical or cynical (скептические или циничные) - untidy (неопрятные) - too self-assured (самоуверенные) - wear ridiculous (нелепую) clothes - spend all their time listening to awful music - gawping (with the mouth open) at unsuitable films

6 Actually, it seems to be quite the opposite of the truth. Teenagers spend a lot of time thinking about their work (studies), their families and friends and their hobbies, they also think of clothes, money, their bodies, how to behave in a certain situation. But isnt it the same for most people? The majority of young people are polite, friendly, open, interested and hard working.
