This
 essay will examine why many young people are passionate about shopping.
Firstly
, fashion is a massive trend for young people these days. What they wear or have is becoming the tool to show their status. I believe that social networks

Facebook

this
 phenomenon. Especially because seeing young people

checking
 those social networks hourly or even every
second
 to see what their friends do or to what they do?, and they tend to judge their value.
On the other hand

time
 with friends and family in person.
For example

although
 we walked around the mall together and had conversations which are still memorable.
However
, some people think that young people should do different activities
such
 as swimming, playing tennis or any other sport.
Personally I

Personally, I
 believe, they may be valuable for young people to develop physical skills or maintain their health rather than going shopping. In conclusion, young people gain confidence and social skills on from shopping,
on the other hand
, sports activities need to be considered to maintain their health. In order to keep
this
 balance, young people should be encouraged to do both activities.
