Summary

"The debate about values among the young has generated a great range of opinions, but little real evidence from young people themselves. This new study provides the essential evidence that has hitherto been missing from the debate." "The Values Debate presents findings from a survey conducted among 34,000 13-15 year olds throughout England and Wales, giving particular attention to social, personal and moral issues. The analysis begins with an overview of what teenagers really think. What are their views on sex, family, AIDS and homosexuality? What stand do they take on tobacco, alcohol and drugs? How do they view abortion and divorce? What importance do they attribute to pornography and violence? What opinions do they hold on pollution, poverty and responsibility for the developing world? What value do they place on themselves and on their future lives?"--Jacket.
