What does freedom mean to the youth?

Misusing freedom

Life without freedom is slavery. But freedom without discipline is anarchy. Youth should enjoy freedom without jettisoning discipline. Youngsters tend to mistake promiscuity for modernity and licentiousness for freedom. Indulgence in wrong things such as sex and drugs is misconstrued as enjoyment of freedom. But freedom sans regard for moral values will prove disastrous. Given their higher IQ and inexhaustible potential, the youth can take the country to new heights of glory.
