I have seen them hang out in the streets after 10 pm which they are to be home!. most of them probably have their own puters so I figure they are on that. There used to be some that played football on the street here but I guess they have moved havent seen them in like 5 years. The kids next door are in to school activitities. So we really dont see them hanging around to many places. Whne I worked in a restrant I had a bunch that wo9uold come in there and hang around playing word games and such. When I got off work I would set with them

hi lakota, Those youngster activities are also normally seen in my neighborhood though it only happen after schools like those kids playing games beside the street or in the vacant lot while they usually not stay late hanging around with their buddies as their parents are so strict so their is curfew time for them.

It is commonly that most of they young are inside the internet cafe, malls, and other bars. Some of them are in school. Some of them with money yes they do car racing, bicycle racing even the new sport wake boarding. But here in the group that I am in, the youngster do meet during Wednesday not because that is their meeting day, but they meet because they are in an orientation on how to make money. At the tender age of 18, some of them are earning one hundred thousand a month. I got envy, how can they do that? so i joined them.

hi greychunny, That is better some youth know how to spend their time wisely and not waste their golden time in things which just make their pocket empty but rather divert their attention to add up earning and be an assets of the society instead of becoming the liability. thanks

yeah its common now to see these young people hanging out on internet cafes, playing games, surfing the net, and everything, some goes to malls, or some just like to stay on canteens, depends on their likes...i also observed that to young people around me here... but there are also some who likes to meet in the church. i always saw group of these young girls & boys meeting on the church, talking to each other, sometimes playing guitars...and spend their time in cleaning the church premises especially during the day that they don't have school or work. and i am happy seeing those kids spending their time in a more productive and healthy way...

hmm I don't know in this small town that I live in right outside of a military base many of the kids in this town have gotten into crime it's so bad now that if you are under the age of 18 afer 6 pm you have to be with someone at least 21 years old. because the youth gangs like to hang out at the mall so the city is trying to maintain a family atmosphere because before there were many fights between the teenagers.

hi kingblack, That a great policy i think though some teenager freedom are restricted it still a good policy to protect the lives of teenager who have the tendency form an alliance with any groups as the affiliation which one join remain anonymous as way to protect one privacy..

All the things you mention are all true they are happening every now and then as it is their sources of entertainment to avoid boredom, Most of the youngster are into dating, window shopping or just hanging around as what you mention though some who have the budget eat on their favorite fastfood, go to watch movies and buy any cute stuffs they like.

I go to the mall to walk a lot and I see a lot of teenagers hanging around there, especially on Friday Nights. They just seem to be talking with their friends, talking or texting on their cell phones, or just hanging out. When I was a teenager, we didn't have a mall here in town. Unless they are shopping, I think they could be spending their time a little more worthily. Kathy.

hi cyrus, You have a right observation and mostly those are the kind of activities which most youngster get involves now days. Since it is a part of being young they tend to focus more in spending lot of free time with their friends and enjoy life while they are still young, taking it lightly and not so seriously different from the way adults view life in entirety.

Most of us go to pubs during the weekends and during weekdays we paly games in the park.We meet at the park and play there.Its the hangout place.We are lucky to have a park in our locality.All of our gang play other games at night like Counter strike in my home.But this happens rarely. I do chatting very rarely.It bores me.

In my place they are frequently seen inside the shopping mall and they always visit the stores to buy cute stuffs, go to the amusement center to play online games while some just stroll around and have chat with their friends. Some go on dating while other go to the movies with their boyfriend and girlfriend.

Well, my nephews and nieces and my daughter usually meet with their friends at the malls and also in school. With regards other teens, i can see more of them in the malls also, maybe because they have computers at home although some wants to hide from their parents when playing computer games and they go to internet cafes outside.I think some of our teens nowadays are more disciplined especially students.

My kids and their friends like to meet at the mall, and go window shopping. Then they eat their snacks after... Sometimes, they also go swimming, or play basketball or badminton. I guess some youngsters who don't have their own PC at home, usually hang around internet cafe's to play online games. Otherwise, my kids usually stay at home and watch tv. Sometimes they buy DVD's and watch at home.

hi atebuds, Yeahm those are the stuffs which many youngsters do now days and they are always act like that since they only enjoy the company of their peers enjoying the feeling of being young. Teenagers who have few friends could often be seen on their homes or just play non-extreme sports like cheese and puzzle games. While those who are very competitive often play online games. The bad things about it when the children lost their allowance when instead of buying snack they use it to play on the internet cafes.
