Young generation is the future of the nation and the most vulnerable part of the society also because they have less experiences which sometimes lead them towards different risky situations,
Examples:
1) Unprotected sexual activities.
2) Stong addiction of drugs and alcohol.
3) Addiction of different casino games which can cause financial damages.
4) Involvement in illegal works for easy earnings.
5) Under-age driving of different two wheeler or four wheeler vehicles.
6) Involvement in political parties where they might face different threatening situations.
And many more.
