Read the article below. This might help you understand that many youths live in a fantasy world. Real life for them looks pretty miserable. What actions will you take after reading this?
"Life is meaningless for one in ten young people, an ‘alarming’ study has found.
They believe life is not worth living or has little or no purpose, according to the poll for the Prince’s Trust.
The ‘ significant core’ of the 16 to 25 year olds who feel this way is mainly among those not in education, work or training.
More than a quarter of those polled were depressed and less happy than when they were younger.
Almost half said they were often stressed and many did not have anything to look forward to or someone to discuss problems with."
