dc.description.abstractToday youth constitute not only an ever increasing percentage of the world's population, but also makes their presence felt in their search for meaning and purpose in life. In their aspiration and vision of a just, fraternal and humane society youth challenge anything irrelevant to them and accept only values that are authentic. While youth are a decisive force in shaping society, they are themselves subject to many influences which are not always positive. Youth today are seeking change - a change from what is irrelevant to them and they do it in their own way, such as the way they dress, speak etc. In order to tell their elders that they are different. The elements that portray their quest for change are what we call 'youth culture'. There is a whole list of features that influence this culture. The whole purpose of this essay is to identify the areas of change and make our youth aware of it, both positive and negative, and then let them make a choice. In this context, to journey with youth, as they pursue their goal, is the task not only of parents but also of educators, pastors, and in fact the whole Church. It is our task to make them aware of the world that they are living in and to give them guidance that will set them on the right path to becoming good citizens not only of this world but also of heaven. This work is intended to make all those who are concerned in any capacity with youth aware of the problems and needs of the young. It is hoped that it will help them understand modern youth better, so that they may be able to give young people the helping hand they so urgently need.en_US
