  1. Most of the teenagers who are part of Generation Y don't care about policy. It's just not that important to them. What's important to them is the climate changes, environmental issues, the women's rights, gay marriage, friends, vacations, having fun, having a good life and enjoy it. This generation's members identify themselves as addicted to technology, being able to travel away from home and still feel at home and not having so many common values.

    The most of the tennagers don´t follow politic.
    For the peoples in this interview the most important values are: women´s rights, the environment and to have a good life, so we can see that those people are interested for something.
    The ID of generation Y is basically about technology.

  4. Those teenagers had some very different political views, but most of them shared the same means to achieve from that political view and the same love for technology, but most of them look like they only knew the basics of the party they support (like it is expected from a teenager),without bothering to know much about them.
    It makes me think that they probably are just in a certain party because they want to be able to state their identity, to be able to say they are from that certain party and not to be really a part of that party and try to make a difference.

    Well, about Political views they say that don't like or are interested in politics... About Important values/issues they show their interest about women's rights, the problems of the planet and climate changes, their friends, their trips and of course enjoy their life.
    ID with Generation Y: They show their love about technologies and like to travel away from home and still feel at home. They also have a few common values !

    The political views of teenagers are not very expansive once most of them aren´t active in politics, ore don´t even care for it.But they are mostly republican because they have been taught by their parents to be it. Generation Y does not posseses many values, but mostly they care about the environment and having a fun life, they care more about being happy than about having money or independence. As for their ID, they definitly are the tecnology generation, once it started to have more impact pratically on their birthdates.And it´s also a generation marked for having access to things much more easily than the generations before (such as travelling, college, elctronics, money,etc).

    In Generation Y the teenagers don't care about politics at least the most part.
    What is more impotant to them is their friends, their vacations, having fun and have a good life.
    And what identifies Generation Y is the technology.
