The grown–up’s opinion.
The elderly people say
that their lives have been made miserable by young
people out on the street late at night. They said that all those groups or subcultures were awful, because all of their members were violent. The middle-aged people think that violence is the symptom of problem in the society. They said that teens hadn`t thought much about their future life, wanted to live now.
