Teenagers and Elderly people in the media.

Teenagers are represented very negatively throughout the media world, points that are always picked up on are; teenage crime, and Anti-social behaviour. The typical 'Teenager' stereotype are seen as either tracksuit wearing 'Hoodies', Chavs, or adolescents that smoke, take drugs and have underage sex. This is not always the case. Only a small percentage of all teenagers are actually like this, and it's this percentage that are creating this reputation for all teenagers, because teenagers are shown so oftenly in the media as portrayting this kind of behaviour/attitude it allows the general public to base there own opions on all teenagers.
