Youth

I'm working on youth project currently and one of the interesting thing to share is the definition of youth.

According to Wikipedia, Youth is the period between childhood and adulthood, described as the period of physical and psychological development from the onset of puberty to maturity and early adulthood.

Definitions of the specific age range that constitutes youth varies. An individual's actual maturity may not correspond to their chronological age, as immature individuals exists at all ages. I like the last part - Immature individuals exist at all ages.

Understanding the youth these days is so tricky. You have to really put yourself in their shoes. In order to do that, you need to think like one. Better still, act like one.

So before you set out and tell the youngsters that you understand them, ask yourself this:

Do you call your home - my crib?

Do you use the word Chill or Chillin?

Do you have bling-bling?

You get the idea..
