1.1Thesis Statement
What is generosity?Generosity is the habit of giving freely withoutexpecting anything in
return.It can involve offering time,assets or talents to aid someone in need.Often equated withcharity as a vitue,generosity is widely accepted in society as a desirable trait.In times of natural
disasters,relief efforts ae frequently provided,voluntarily,by individuals or groups acting
unilaterally in making gifts of time,resources,goods,and money.Generosity is a guiding principle
for many registered charities,foundations and non-profit organizations.
Nowdays,teenagers dont know or also can say that they are forget to be generous.They
ignore to be generous in some times because they are busy with their own life.It is sad to say that
teens did not have awareness how important to be generous.In this research we want toinvestigate the generosity among teens of Negeri Sembilan Matriculation college.We want to
examine are they really generous and if yes in what kind of situation they being generous and
what their acts to be generous.In addition are they ignore and dont like to be generous?
The generous acts that shown by teenagers in college are in terms of money,sharing
knowledge,sharing their personal belongings,be a good motivater to their friends, and trying to
help others.As a common example,we can said teens attitude on helping lecturers who carry a lot
of thing and also help their friends who have financial problem.Furthermore,take care of their
room mates who having health problems,respect and obey lecturers instructions to be a
successful person in life and also be discipline.Maybe they dont realize that this simple acts also
make them to be generous.
So,we are conducting this research to identify the relationship between teenagers and
generosity,for instance are they generous,how they define generosity,what are the generous acts

5.1 Conclusion
After conducting relevant researches regarding on our topic Teenagers and generosity, we
have finally come to a rational conclusion.
Our research results tells us that teenagers in this modenised era are generous too.We are
found out this from severe discussion on the way of teens answer our questionarre.According to
our sixth question of questionarre, we set this question to examine whether teenagers are
charitable or not.As a result, 94% of boys and 98% of girls proved that they are charitable.This is
because teenagers are generous and they never expect reputation to being generous.They really
understand the meaning of generous and they act gentle too to being generous.
Secondly,comparing both sexes in question seven, we found out that teenagers are selfish a
bit.This is because from our report result 54% of boys and 70% of girls said that they are selfish
most of the time.This is quite large number.There must have reasons why teenagers being
selfish.For example, maybe their parents teach them to think about ownself first and then only
think about others seek.Then,in this rushing world no one care about others ,so teenagers also
adapted to environment to prevent theirselves from cheated by anyone.
Furthermore,in our question number eight as we asked teenagers that Are you happy foryour friends success?, 92% of boys and 80% of girls said yes.From the result we generally can
conclude most of the teenagers happy for others success.This is because teenagers know that
jealousy and envy is not the act of generous person and they trying to control their natural habits
that jealous on people and think positively to be happy for their friends success.As teenagers
control their bad habits here,it show us that teens know how to be generous and they are for the
right ways of being generous.
In addition,the next findings is based on teenagers volunterism to help others.Almost96% of teenagers having the attitude helping others volunteerly.Eventhough, someone never ask
for help but teens know that they needing help.This is because they having the awareness on
society.For instance, there must at least one teen in every public transport who offer their seat for
an old folks.This might be a strong reason to said that teenagers are still having generous
attitudes eventhough world facing changes everyday.

Other than that, our next graph tell us that almost 97% of teenagers are happy and enjoy
helping their family members and friends.Friends and family members are best related and very
close to a teen.So we can take this graph result as a prove to the statement that teenagers are
really concern and have desire to being generousHas they having the desire to helping others
they will be enjoy doing it and also having more chances here to a teen being generous.
According to question number 11, we can conclude that teenagers are really love
someone they like truly and they cant live without them and can also said that teenagers involve
in relationship deeply without except anything.This is because almost 96% of boys and 62% of
girls are simply forgive their beloved person for their mistakes and failings because they cant
live without them.Here we can see that teens let their ego apart to always be with their beloved
person.Here we can conclude teens are innoscent and they are really not yet matured enougt to
do a right decision.So that it must take some time to them to think of being generous.
Next,to test teens responsibility we are set a question that do you donate your money
for good purpose only?, and all teens answer yes for this question.Here we can see teens
generous act on how they spend their money and they know value is money in this life and also
money is not everything in this world.They also have the awareness that giving when no purpose
is not a generous act.Here teenagers know that only giving money is cannot be a generous
act,what is generosity and they know when to act generous.
According to question number 13, teenagers proved that they know that generosity is not
a act to gain reputation.This is because almost 94% of teenagers said that they are not loan their
money to get praises.Instead of it, teens really have thekind heart to help one in suffer.They
never think about what they will get in return but they just do it as a responsibility that they have
to done in their life.From here we know that teens define generosity as responsibility.
However,teenagers are cannot act generous all the time and in all kind of situation.This is
because they still depend on their parents and have to ask permissions of their parents to act
generous in some kind of situation.This is because when we asked would you except back wht
you given to someone, 62% of teenagers answered yes to this question.Furthermore, only 38% of
teenagers said no.Although, majority of teens said that they would except back what they
borrow,but we have to notice a thing here that teens are act generous too, to wipe someones
tears or suffer for ashort while.So here we must notice that teens having the giving heart.

As a students,teenagers play their role well.This is because when we ask about sharing
knowledge 92% of teenagers said that sharing knowledge is beneficial.Here teenagers know that
sharing knowledge is a great act done by a kind and caring person to guide someone who suffer
to study.They also know that knowledge is priceless gift from god,so that they cant be stingy to
teach it to others.Here teens show their generous act by obey gods instruction.
Eventhough,when ask about sharing personal belongings only 18% of teenagers can do so
and the rest 82% of teens are not willing or they are didnt like to share personal belongings with
others.This is a lack of generous act actually.However, here we have think about teenagers
expectation in some thing.We think that they are not matured enough to do so.This is because if
we are like something we will expect to only we are the one own it and will not give it to
anyone.Teenagers are still growing.So we cant simply blame them in this situation, but it is
better if teenagers are borrow their personal belongings if someone really need it the most.
Then when we asking a common question that would you pick someones thing for them
that they accidentally dropped in the floor, all the teenagers said yes.So here we can know
teenagers are aware to being generous and they really willing to be so.
Then,to test teenagers willingness we asked a question that are they willing to let their
friends who ran out credits in their cell phone using their cell phone, 93% of teenagers answered
yes and only 7% of teenagers said no.From here we know that teenagers are really concern onothers struggle and they also trying to understand others problem.Furthermore,They play their
best role they there to help someone in trouble.So that teenagers have the willingness to help
others who are in trouble.This also can be said as a generous act of teenagers.
As a way to examine how generous a teenager to their loved person,we set a question that
how much thought will they put to buy gifts to their beloved person.As a result,23% of teenagers
said a bit,68% said a lot and onlt 9% teens said not at all.From here we can know that teenagers
are really act generous to their loved person.This is because they are caring and kind hearted.
Finally,we asked a common tricky question in question twenty.75% of teenagers said they
will send their all the way back home,no matter how far it is , and 25% of teens said that they
will send their friend to the nearest point of public transport.From here also majority of teens are

really care about their friends safety and they think about her/his suffer if let them to take public
transport alonely in night.
In a nutshell, from the findings and discussions we found out that teenagers are stillgenerous,they define generosity as a responsibility,and service in their life,teenagers act generous
in many kind of situation and willingness and thought are the factors that make teens being
generous.

5.2 Recommodation
Finally we are having some suggestions here how teenagers can improve themselves to
be more generous and what are the parents role to make their become a generous person infuture.
Firstly,teenagers must have the desire to be generous and must find for it everyday and
everytime.They must every single of their act and make its not hurting others and it is
positive.Next,teenagers must have positive thoughts.This is because there is a proverb what you
think is powerful,what you say is powerful and it will change your life forever.So that,teenagers
thought must be positive and clear first to be a generous person.Then, teenagers should know
that being generous is a rewarding activity.
In addition parents must play a greater role to make their child be generous because
parents are the closest relation to their chid.Firstly,parents must have the thought to raise up their
child as a generous person in future.Then they must practice it to their from their
childhood.Parents must be a ideal for their children.Furthermore,they must teach what is
generous act actually and in what kins of situation one need to act generous.
If teenagers and parents take initiative on being generous it is not impossible to makeour teenagers being a kind-hearted,care giving,honest,lovable,helping and a generous person.
