What is it like to be a youth in Ireland? 


(With subtitles/Without audio for copyright reasons)


Sex, drugs, alcohol, bullying, sexual identity, body image, education.... these are all factors that affect the lives of youths growing up today. We asked a group of
Deaf youths from 17-21 to share their experiences and opinions on everything from STIs and binge drinking, to peer pressure, finding your sexual identity, and accessing third level education.
They talk honestly and openly about drinking habits, experimenting with drugs, sex, body confidence, feeling pressured by peers and the media to look and act a certain way, as well as finding sexual identity and being bullied.
