1 What you think is the best leisure activity for teenagers?

I believe the best leisure activity for teenagers is any group activity This could be playing a team sport or joining a hobby group or even volunteering Firstly, teenagers like to feel that they belong to the group Secondly, being part of a group helps teenagers make friends Friendship is very important to teenagers In addition, they will make friends with people who have the same interests as them For these reasons, I think group activities are best for teenagers.

In my opinion, teenagers should not be decided the way they use their spare time by parents Firstly, we all know that every individual has his/her own leisure time This is especially true for juveniles because, at this age, they should feel free to what they like Secondly, if adolescents are free to what like, they will have more opportunities to be creative, and they can develop themselves naturally They can get more and more mature However, parents should keep an eye on their children and give some guidance and useful advice in time so that teenagers are not in their wrong way In summary, those above reasons have led me to conclude that parents should let their children what they like in their free time but make sure that everything is under parents’ control.
