Youth unemployment in the UK

Youth unemployment is now a big problem in the U.K.
There are a number of causes for high youth unemployment :-
  1. Suspended teens from school, in other way unqualified students.
  2. A person with mental health problem.
  3. Immigrants are working for less money.
  4. Youth are being more lazy to do things. So, some jobs do not accept them
This highly problematic situation are affecting negatively on teenagers in current life, and this setting their lives at risk. Young people feel that they have nothing to live for. A lady called katherine works as a reporter at the BBC news, interviewed one of the youth unemployed named Chris Newell. Newell (2014) as cited in Sellgren (2014) said " I just got into a cycle of staying in bed because I had nothing to wake up for. Then I began noticing my mental health getting worse and worse. I became depressed and anxious. When I went out in public it got to the point where I felt paranoid and edgy around people". The government is doing their best to find a appropriate solution for this problem, while jobs at the same time must offers young citizen the opportunity rather than offering immigrants.

Some citizens are unqualified, old people with mental health problem, and non-compliant with the work conditions. Therefore, these people listed above are not accepted in some particular jobs.

 It is recommended from families to help their sons and daughters to get their qualified certificate, and not to neglect them. In the future, the problem might be solved and thing would be better.
