9. Kumekuwa na mgogoro mkubwa sana kati ya wazazi na vijana jambo ambalo limepelekea vijana wengi kushindwa kuishi na wazazi wao ili hali wakiwa katika umri mdogo na kupelekea vijana hao kukumwa na changamoto mbalimbali katika maisha yao ya ukuaji na hatimaye kushindwa kutimiza ndoto zao. Kwa kutumia tamthiliya mbili ulizosoma toa hoja tatu kwa kila tamthiliya kwa kuonesha chanzo cha migogoro hiyo na namna ya kuitatua.
