Day 4

Their days have value: Stressed and time crunched, youth today are also clear about what they want for themselves in the future. In surveys, they typically rank two things extremely high: having time for their families and a job that inspires them. In a recent Pew Research survey, 52 per cent of the teenagers surveyed said that being a good parent “is one of the most important things in life”, while only 30 per cent said the same thing about a successful marriage. Looking ahead, they expect to work many jobs (which makes them less concerned about loyalty to their bosses (and as a fall-out, their church), and more concerned about the contribution they are making – at home and at work. The Lesson: We must respect their unique sets of values, and encourage them to identify what they are for themselves.
