  No difference between teenagers today, yesterday or tomorrow. Teenagers will still be teenagers. If anything is to affect the difference, it would be the society. Teenage years are a transition phase of life for everyone of us. The minds are maturing so we tend to crave for security and sufficiency to our own standards.
  Anyway, idol searching shows are not because of teenagers panting for fame or fortune. It is plainly everyday business for people in the media industry. What the audience want to see, the media industry will bring it to us. But personally, I don't want no more idol searching shows. It has lost it's virgin interests meaning when it first started out of course it's interesting as in it is something new to the TV audience and it is unique but now it is so saturated, like a norm. No longer unique. Just like survivor and amazing race. But thats just my personal views, don't mean to conflict with those who think otherwise.

  I desire to be a gardener, and dreams of planting my own beautiful garden one day, it's my life aspiration. Beside that, I also desire to be a carpenter and a cobbler, it's my dreams.

  teenagers are geting more and more pampered, self-centred and relying too much on their parent making them very hard to be independent.

  I'm 17 this year and I do agree with your sentence. But there are also those who're striving to be independent like working for their own allowance despite the family owning a landed property and a car with good allowance too. So how do we generalise this group?

  i dont have a cellphone
  i dont get any allowance
  i am not allowed to get a job
  i am not allowed to go out with my friends
  i cant use the phone for more than 5 minutes. and even then, it has to be for school stuff or stuff that my mom approves of.
  i can do practically any housework except for cleaning the aircon.
  i have to cook dinner for the family at least once a week.
