One of the most controversial issues today is whether adolescents should observe the common norms in our community. In
this
 essay, I would mention both advantages and disadvantages of
this
 matter. For young
people
, it would be difficult to make their own decision because of a lack of experience in
society
. One of the reasons why is that they have little opportunity to communicate with adults outside of their families. Most young
people
 spend less time

 social circles and may focus more on their close friends. During the period of adolescence, their perception of
society
 is developing into an adult, so learning about the traditional practices of their community is necessary to a certain extent.
On the other hand
, the pace of social changes is rapidly faster due to developing technologies for several years. To adapt to the change in
society
,
people
also
 needed to change their common knowledge flexibly. Take
for example
 a rural area in Japan, only elderly members can take part in a neighbourhood association meeting, but a young generation especially women, cannot participate there. For elderly
people
, it is a traditional custom to attend only close members in a council.
However
, with the advent of the ageing
society
, the participation of young
people
 would play an important key role in political activities in the countryside.
As a result
, there are both positive and negative points: young
people
 obey traditional customs in their community or do their own way.
People
 including adults and elderly
people
 have more responsibility for their own behaviour because their way of thinking is expected to set an example to the younger generation.
