Opinion about youth culture belong to an elderly person.

* More violence, more vandalism exists than it did ten years ago. Many people say that their lives have been made miserable by young people out on the street late at night. Young people are more violent than ever. All those groups or subcultures are awful, because all of their members are violent.

* Violence is the symptom of problems in the society. Some social and economic problems may give rise to youth violence. Teenagers don’t live in a desert. Home, school, and neighbourhoods are part of the individual environment.

*Subcultures are not that bad as they are thought to be. Teens want to show off.
