Dylan betsy and brody are so boring

We are watching teenagers in a small village with little escapism... I believe a lot of young people then and now would benefit from what I remember as going to a youth club, you had to be of a certain age (14) but you were in a warm, dry and safe environment .. young people were able to socialise and usually the place was supervised by a youth worker so they had access to a listening ear.. Sadly, costs to keep a place open and employ someone to make sure they were safe and had a listening ear if needed meant closure to all that what was available at that time... Weatherfield.. what does it have to offer to teenagers.. nada.. zilch... I believe that recreational facilities for young people need to be made available with appropriate adults being able to give advice and support.. I like to think that there would be less crime committed .. just my opinion..
