Role models. We all have had someone we admire or look up to, could be a family member we've known all our lives, a professional sports player we've never met but know all about them or a intagram influencer who we blindly follow.

It,s in the teen years where we are most driven to decide whats good or bad, our morals, what we are in this life and how we look at it. Its true that if a role model has good achivments, good personality, and more positve things this could only guide the teen to be a better person. I mean that, the teeneger, tends to be more a-like to the person they follow which could be or very good or very bad, it all depends on the person which you follow. All this goes back to one point, who's a good role model and who isn't?

A lot of teens admire a professional sport athlet, this because they are the best at something or because of how they deal with the sport in themself, this makes them great role models for kids, since they represent the meaning of hardwork to e better, which can be a valuable lesson not only to the sport, but for life.

Other people admire artist, designers, economic or even stock professionals, the problem is when they admire models or influencers which only got famous because of their looks, and normally, nothing else. When a teen admires a model or influencer it tends to be only because of how they look, and teenegers want to be more alike, this becomes a problem because unlike hardwork or personality wise, they want to become more physically alike, which, is almost imposible to achive, since all bodies are different, or faces. This admire to them only leeds them to being more obssesive with their looks or weight because its not how her or his role-model looks like. Even thought its mostly not the model or influencers fault, it can be if they allow and/or promote bad habits saying they are positive, to be skinnier or more like them, which is always lies and just offers a bad life condition.

Lots of people in their life have broke a minor law, rather a simple cartoon in a staircase or to break into abandoned private territory, but some of these people have been caught in the act, and went to trial, the real question is if they should have a punishment or not.

Well, its known that most of the people who brake a minor law for the first time, are teens, around 15-24 years old, and even if its very wrong or just a mistake, they should have a small punishment like community service. Well since the people who, normally, made their first offence, young, they are more active than a grownup which means that a simple fisical task could just be it.

The community service is a simple task, sometimes hard, but it does help the community, specially if it has to do with the environment, they could the first offenders to help the environment, and not just let them go. Some could say that the simple reason of being in trail is enough scare to get the child straight, but being scared of someone isnt always right, the correct thing is to earn up to your mistakes, to not be afraid to tell when you were wrong, if they’re scard that will make them more careful, but its most probable that they will continue to break minor laws.

If the teenager or young adult does something wrong, the first reaction from his part would have to be regret, still admitting their mistake, almost like turning their self’s in. To do some community service could help them do that, and if so they do, it usually calms the feeling of regret to proud, happy to help in the environment.

In conclusion first time offenders have to do some, even just a little bit, of community service, it will make them a better person, with much more peace than letting them off right away, thinking they tricked police or the law, encouraging them do repeat their mistake.
