Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to present reflections on the role of teachers — educators in teenagers’/adolescents’ lives. It’s a well-known fact that their identity is mainly formed on the basis of popular modern culture, without the appropriate involvement of adults. The author draws attention to the lack of dialogue between the youth and adults. She claims that the reason for this deficit is the low awareness of the character of the modern culture. That’s why, addressing this article to teachers — educators, she describes specific trends in modern culture which influence the young generation.
