Underemployment Among Youth

August 23rd, 2010

It would be nothing short of amazing if everyone in the world didn’t have to worry about money, didn’t have to worry about their present conditions or their future. But the world doesn’t work that way, and for a lot of us, especially when the economy’s slowing recovering from the recession, we do have to worry. Of the proportion of people who can’t find a job in this economy, a lot are young people. And this is around the world, according to the UN. This means that in families who are already struggling financially to begin with, it’s hard to find a way for work-aged teens to find a source to help support their families. That’s troubling news for anyone to see, let alone youth who have to find a way to help themselves get by. So what can we do?
