The overall characteristics stated when hiring teenaged interns are teenagers that are a great fit for their culture, must work well together as a team, professionalism and fun. A great concern that I notices was the lack there of for professionalism that teenagers do not have so I would imagine that ultimately they need to do their best in their job they have been fired in and the staff would be willing to work with and or mentor the teens and guide in the right direction.…

This research is to study if teens should be allowed to drink an alcoholic beverage in the teenagers’ home with the consent of a parent. Teens who drink without an adult around tend to drink more, then when a responsible adult is around. Teenagers who drink more could be putting themselves at risk of dangerous situations, such as car accidents, violent behavior, alcohol poisoning, and other health problems. If a responsible parent is supervising when a teen is drinking the parent can control the amount of alcohol the teen can consume. It also prevents the teen from seeking to get alcohol in an illegal way, from a stranger, or going to jail for being in possession of alcohol.…

The people who are in the ages of 18 to 26 years years of age have the responsibility to be educated about the sake of becoming healthy, because every individual that are 18 through 26 are role models for young and elderly people.

A major weakness of this project is that although an adult can control the pill organizer, parental supervision is necessary at all times with this product to ensure the doses are actually consumed. Children under the age of 10 should be supervised to ensure accuracy of each dose of medications. Parents who are hoping to purchase this product must have a smart phone because these pillboxes contain technology allowing for parents to give their child a specific dose of their medication via the use of a smart phone. We only have select themes for the pillboxes, therefore, we are limited in what we can provide to the patient and to age groups the themes may appeal to. Our budget is great enough to fulfill all the advertising needs and product manufacturing.…

A challenge facing youth is unemployment. When looking back as far as decades ago, the youth of today have a very hard time finding a steady good job. During the time period we have notice that economy has had a downturn which affected jobs and several other companies.
