For my school's honor society, we have to write a 300 minimum essay on this topic to get in: "What are the biggest problems facing teenagers today? How should our young leaders address these issues and work toward a solution?" I need something meaningful, deep, that'll catch their attention. Please help, must be written by THIS Thursday, due by FRIDAY!!

the biggest problems facing teenagers today have inscreased since the last time ...too many youngsters are dealin with problems such as sex drugs alcahole wealth health n many more this is due to the society surrounding these youngsters in order for them to fall victim to develop bad changes slowly but effective ....most teenagers have been in their place from the start when some have jus caught on with this illusion livin by the influence of other people... several have turned into criminals and have distroyed they life ...but its never too late to see whats ahead ....however to address these common issues and working toward a solution for these problems occuring... teenagers need to be independent about themselves..and be more responsible for they own actions.. . they need to fight for a very long time ...in order for them to balance right n wrong ...to help eacher other is a great way of avoiding bad lifestyle preventing the loss n workin towards your goals one can inherit great accomplishments all through the positivty of the mind .. .

Just a few ideas, only one parent in the home. finances are very low. Getting into a college, the expense of it and knowledge. The fear of leaving home for the first time. They could work toward some of these but the parent situation is not their problem.

Hmm...you could do a topic on diabetes because some teenagers have it and it's really hard for them. Like my cousin, Josef, he's 15, he has diabetes.

choose from:
1.their boyfriend/girlfriend pressuring them into sex
2.alcoholism - how teens are surrounded by alcohol, you might include that some teens even have alcohol in their homes.
3.grades-how the new struggle for scholarships and admission into college affects teens stress levels

alcohol- i know that it is really obvious but it is a huge topic and it is one of the biggest things facing teens and you could write a lot on it

THE PRESSURE TEENAGERS FEEL TO BE A CERTAIN TYPE; 'COOL' & POPULAR, TO FIT IN.
IT DISTRACTS MINDS TO THE WRONG ISSUES & YOUNG PPL LOSE THEIR PERSPECTIVE & SENSE OF PRIORITY. PPL THAT 'DO NOT FIT IN' FEEL ISOLATED, WHICH CAN HAVE VARIOUS NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON SOCIETY.
I CAN GO ON ABOUT THIS IF U WANT!

Hi....
Maybe you could do something on Anerexia?
I'm not sure, but I think that would be pretty meaningful.
Hope I have helped...
