Motivating youths for a better future

Bangladesh is known to be a country of the youth and it's the younger people of the earlier generations who played glorious roles in our language movement, the liberation war and the movement for democracy. The kind of proactive role the youth had played earlier is no longer seen. Whatever the reasons for such decline, the young people are losing their confidence and many are going astray.

In absence of scopes to engage them in productive activities, many are getting involved in silly and meaningless activities and thus wasting their valuable time. A few may get involved in criminal activities. In a country of huge population, a small percentage is enough to create problems. What is particularly worrying is that the youths are losing their dreams unlike the earlier generations. So, seniorfamily members need to take proper care of their children and the juveniles.They need to be motivated to work for a better future for themselves and for society.
