Young people should be helped, sheltered, ignored, and clubb

Summary

This quote suggests a paradoxical approach towards young people, emphasizing both their need for support and protection, while being prepared to impose discipline when required. The phrase "helped, sheltered, ignored" reflects a notion of providing guidance, safety, and independence for young individuals. However, the addition of "clubbed if necessary" alludes to a harsher approach, indicating that, in some instances, strict measures may be necessary to discipline or correct behavior. This quote captures the complex and sometimes conflicting ways in which society views and deals with youth.
