"We want freedom ! Teenagers nowadays yearn to "set themselves" free: free from parental control, free from school responsibilities etc. Discuss."
I agree that teenagers nowadays yearn to "set themselves" free, I think everybody can only have freedom to a certain extent. There are some things which we have no control over, and those things are what our parents have to control. Teenagers think that parents control too many things in their life, but what they are trying to do is for their children's good. We may often get frustrated with things like, parents setting a curfew for us, restricting our circle of friends, choosing the subjects for us to study and choosing our CCAs for us. But I can see that they are choosing what is best for us, even if we do not like it. Teenagers should get the freedom they deserve, but still, parents should have a control over some things or teenagers might just learn the wrong things outside.
