Youth is a time when you can decide about your future life. You can choose way for your life and it can be good or bad. You can prepare your life to live with loving wife and family or you can become unhappy person or even a criminal. Many people say that it is very good because you can decide yourself what way you want to choose, but I think that young people sometimes do not know what to choose and what is evil – that's why they often take drugs and abuse alcohol.

Teenagers have often very receptive brain, so they can learn faster and better then others; they need less time to acquire a knowledge. They can also work to develop and improve their's brain.

When you are young generally you live with parents so you do not have to carry about many things – you leave it them. You often get pocket money and you can buy something for yourself .

Many people think that being a teenager is some very good thing – you do not have to carry about most things and you can do with your life whatever you want, but it is not as nice as they think. Young people have to learn a lot – if they want to have a good job in their's future. They stay about 8 hours at the school and they must also learn a lot at home.

Mature people often want to have calm and organized life. They often have many stereotypes and they judge person by some predetermined rules. Young people are more often more tolerant to other nations and cultures.

As a teenager you can spend many time with your friends, you can improve your talents, skills and hobbies. You can spend whole day on doing something without thinking if a dinner is ready, have you already do launder and dishes – as a mature person.

All in all every person was, or will be a teenager and he will see what i is like. As I wrote it has many good and bad sides. It is very big responsibility to decide about your future life when you are teenager. I would like to do not regret something when I will be an old man.

Some people believe that being a teenager is so easy. They often enumerate numerous good things but seems to forget about bad ones. Ok, I agree that our life is easier than adults, but still, it's not so easy as many think.
In teen ages we have less responsibilities- we don't have to work because we live with parents who pay for the house, for our education and for many other things. They give us pocket money and we can do with it whatever we want. The next argument is that teens are in good health and are full of energy. Most teenagers have clear minds and learn fast. But the most important thing is that we are young, free, have lots of friends and so many opportunities.
On the other side, there are some disadvantages, too. We face stress, either at school or at home, which can lead to depression. We suffer from peer pressure as everyone wants to be the best. Another thing is that some adults don't respect us, as we're under 18, and treat as children.
All in all, being a teenager has a lot of advantages as well as disadvantages. I think it's not so bad. Young people should make good use of this age.
