parents know that every child is more than a period of growing up and becoming themselves as individuals.In this article you will learn what a teen culture and by what rules it exists.
What is it?
First, we should say that as such, teen culture does not exist.There are just teenage kids that are combined according to certain interests or hobbies.A more correct to speak of the existence of various subcultures whose members are the same, and the minor children.Here in these units and has its own specific rules: fashion, a form of communication, certain music and so on. D. However, to use the term "juvenile culture" is possible in the event that there is no need in such detail to consider hobbies almost adult children, but want to talk aboutthe device of their lives.
Why do it?
So, why is there a teenage culture?It just so she could not be, for it must be certain prerequisites.And here is simple: being a full member of this society that's huge, a child is much easier to communicate with their peers and, as they say, "to be the theme."What are the important moments can be identified?
- First of all, teenage culture makes it possible to virtually all members of the community to communicate on an equal footing.
- The second important point - a measure of self-identity.This period is important because at this time the child is actively trying to find himself.Who am I?Why am I in this world?These and similar questions troubled young people, and they are struggling to find an answer.
- And, of course, important that the adolescent culture - is a huge world, where there is no place for adults.There's no one in command, it does not give instructions and teaches life.Only in this community teenager can feel adult.
Rules with teenager
should be said that parents should not be afraid if the child is too carried away adolescent or youth culture.Often this takes place over time and replaced by something else comes.But if you begin to deal with the child, prohibit something important for the community - you can just stumble upon the protest and further aggravate the situation.In any case, adults must remember that teenage culture - this is the environment where the child can get away from the adult world, away from it all, communicated exclusively to none.
Dangers
should say a few words, and that in itself teenage culture is not so positive in every sense, as it might seem at first glance.There are a few anxious moments, of which an adult should not be forgotten:
- belonging to a particular subculture teenager substantially narrows horizons and virtually precludes the possibility of dialogue with the representatives of various subcultures (often different currents hostile to each other).
- Danger may carry harmful social manifestations that are often present in various youth formations: obscene language, a particular jargon, smoking, alcoholism and even drug abuse.
However, parents, even knowing all these details, do not yet prohibit the child to be a member of a certain adolescent groups.However, adults need to be alert and always keep in mind that it is best to establish with the child trust.
Features
next question, which is to focus - especially teenage culture.As you can highlight?
- Appearance - this is the cornerstone of every single teen or youth group.Already only because of this nuance man can consider himself a representative of a particular community.Note that often the fashion trends of such groups are incomprehensible to adults (eg punk), can be frightening (a prime example - the Goths).However, all this - the elements of self-expression of the child as a person, do not forget it.
- The second important point - the music in the teenage culture.Thus, representatives of various subcultures choose not only different artists, but also a different style of music.It would seem, what's wrong?And the fact that music is music - discord.Parents should not forget that some styles of music can be harmful to the psyche, or even hazardous to health (scientists proved that hard rock has a negative effect on the unformed child's mind and the work of his principal organs).
- Another distinctive feature of each youth group performs a particular style of communication.And not only in their community, but also with others.Adults need to understand it and accept, but only if such behavior is not bordered by bad manners and rudeness.
- views and outlook.It should be said that often a particular subculture forms a certain outlook on life from a young man.However, there is nothing wrong, because everything can change with time.But again, parents should be alert and always keep in mind that some of the current reject, such as suicide.
These are the key moments in the life of each child, which can not be avoided as long as it is like a carrier of teenage culture.
few words about subcultures
What goals poses a teen culture?Message around the world that teenagers - are full people who want to be perceived as adults.That is why children are so often combined in certain communities "of interest."It is said that there are three "old" subculture from which and grow more and more new formation.So, it's the hippies, punks and Gopnik.These currents have arisen in the second half of the past century in Europe and the United States.In the former USSR mentioned formation spread much later: only in the 80 youth seriously beginning to get involved in them.Today, in our country are actively developing such subcultures like emo (emo kidy), hip-hoppers, freaks, metal, grafittery, football fans, and so on. D. And this is not a complete list.After all, today the direction of its obsolete thing of the past, and in their place come more and more (animeshniki, "vanilla" within).
scientific sphere
For many, a surprise will be that pundits very interested in teen culture.There are many different studies and research papers on all sorts of subcultures as a teenager living areas.So, we list the basic science, which is of interest to teen culture: Social Studies (the children of this talk at school), sociology (the science of the arrangement of society, important members of which are teenagers and young people), social work (there probably teenage culture is seen as the reasondeviation behavior of minors).
