Summary: As part of the BBC's Generation Next programming, the BBC's Robin Lustig asks what it really mean to be an adult. He explores what "youth" means in different societies and cultures worldwide. In this programme Robin assesses the relevance of citizenship to the young. What do they think about their duties and responsibilities?
This is standard BBC fare, with the usual high quality production values. It's part of the BBC's "Generation Next" series of documentary programs about what "youth" means in different societies and cultures worldwide. This program deals with youth citizenship and the ability to vote by people under age 18. I couldn't help but think the program would have been better if we had heard more voices from people under age 18. Host Robin Lustig does a fine and professional job, but I wanted to hear more from the perspective of the subjects of the piece.
