5. Before the 1940’s, more specifically before WWII, youth were seen and not heard. They took
life seriously, helping with the war effort. They took on jobs to help bring in money for their
family.
Once the war ended the role of teenagers quickly changed. Teenagers no longer had to drop
out of school because the economy was booming. Teens were now staying in school and
taking on part-time jobs. These part-time jobs and allowances provided spending money for
the youth of the decade.
The youth of this time were dependent on their parents, but also wanted their
independence.
The combination of spending and the need to be independent created the youth culture.
Before the 1950’s there was no music targeted at the youth. Grandparents had the
Charleston, parents had the jitterbug, and young blacks had rhythm and blues. Until rock
and roll white teens had no music to dance to.

'Mods' or Moderns were fashionconscious sharp dressers of the 1960s.
Emerging in part from the jazz
modernists of the 1950s, and partly from
working-class traditions of competitive
dressing, Mods aped the look of middleclass businessmen. They wore Italian-cut,
custom-made suits from Cecil Gee and
teamed them with polo shirts and neat
Vidal Sassoon haircuts. They rode Vespa
motor scooters.
