Globalization era has made reform movement in all human life sectors, with technological advances. Mastering technology is essential thing in which everything has been using and controlling by machines and social status are determined with high education and mastering technology or science. Although, modernization or globalization has brought charm to people enjoying their life and make better life and easier. It also influences on teen’s life style which more negative effect and become social life problem.
The first problem is the fashion. Generally, in several years ago teen’s life style always used eastern habit which could see friendlier, polite, and more beautiful. But everything has changed when modernization came to Indonesia by foreigners, in which they took modern technology and also western habit or cultures. Western fashion came through the electronic audiovisual and foreigners. The most fastest and perfect is through television as one of technological advances.
Due to the development of technology such as satellite communication and internet, people in 21st century are better informed about world events than ever before. We no longer have to wait until the evening news hour or publication of the daily newspaper to find out about current events. Instead, we can get updates on the latest breaking news stories as soon as they happen via 24 – hour cable TV broadcasts and internet news sources. You can even subscribe to services the send news directly to your email address or cell phone. As a result, we can always be informed about important events. In additions, news coverage is no longer limited by geography and distance. Modern internet and satellite technology allows broadcasters to send video and audio reports around the world, so event that were once local now have global audience, and we can learn about breaking news in every corner of the world.
Most of our societies are imitative new habit, especially teen. In order to they can say modern as foreigner, they use what become foreigners habit, we can see many teen’s life styles like western life styles. They wear tight clothes, moreover they just wear under wear, and it means just brassiere and breeches at public area. And hairdo styles they also imitate from foreigners, their hair are polish based on what they want with multicolor. In the makes up also imitate which over make up, some time their make up doesn’t appear with their face or body and also weather. So it makes them worse than before and it will influence on their attitude in public.
Traditional music as original Indonesia music is almost forgotten by young generation. They more like western music than Indonesian music’s, such as – rock, jazz, moreover becomes favorite music. Instead a few of them didn’t memorize national music’s. So, traditional music rather die, where as traditional music’s have moral values or message that will influence on social life. So, traditional music’s are as controlling attitude into society. There are many teen also more like fast food and soft drink, for example pizza, burger, ice cream, coca cola and etc, in which usually consumed by foreigners. Whereas fast food and soft drink aren’t nutrition or junk food and they know about it because become daily consume, and they more like instant food than traditional foods which have many nutrition.
The second problem is teen’s social life rather worried. Few years ago, teen’s social life always influence on their religious and most of them loyal to the religion and afraid if they break the low of religion. So, they always tried to do all of the command of their religion. But now,
