The
麻豆社's massive Talking Teen survey has revealed some interesting
results. We took them along to a local school and talked them through
with four pupils.
Here
are the questions we asked Sam Wilson and Jenny Hook:

1.
Under Pressure: Our survey showed that one third of parents
were worried their teenager would become depressed. Are you surprised
by that and what are the biggest things you worry about?
2.
Money: Almost half of the teenagers surveyed said that the best
thing about their parents was the amount of money they gave them.
Are you surprised by that and do you think your parents give you
enough money? Do you worry about money?
3.
Best/worst things about your parents: Love and humour were
parents' top qualities according to teenagers today, but their money
was almost as highly rated. What are the best and worst things about
your parents? How do you feel about your parents' dress sense?

Joe
Briggs and Noreen Aslam were asked these questions:
1.
Sex: Teens still find talking about sex with their parents
difficult as only a fifth of teenagers, felt able to talk their
parents about it. For the majority, 59%, sex was a subject they
felt more comfortable talking to their friends, not their parents,
about. We asked: Who do you discuss sex with?
2.
Society: The survey showed that teenagers today feel undervalued
by society, as only 13% agreed that society values them. Over half
of teenagers, 54%, also felt that they get a bad press. We asked:
How do you think teenagers are seen by society and the media?
3.
Appearance: Interestingly teens were as equally worried about
their appearance as they were about their school work/exams (49%
and 48% respectively). We asked: Do you and your friends worry about
your appearance?
4.
Religion: The results showed 6 out of 10 teenagers felt able
to talk about faith/religion with their parents. We asked: Do you
talk to your parents about religion?
