Well lets start with the teenagers. I myself am in my teenage years so I should know best. Here where I live in central Europe, the amount of teenagers smoking cigarettes, weed, taking drugs, drinking alcohol is way greater. Every teen here does it and I myself has tried cigarettes and alcohol as a muslim. In the UAE there were way less of that but there was still a lot of teens smoking cigarettes, and a tiny bit of drinking alcohol. Dubai has a lot of stuff to do for teenagers, all those malls and stuff. That why I think the teens did less of bad stuff then here in Europe.
Sounds boring.
Quote:Dubai was also way safer. A teenager there could stay outside until the early morning hours alone because nothing would happen. Here you cannot stay outside that late because there are a lot of people who are drunk and carry knifes. Also here in Europe because of the refugees coming in it has gotten way less secure.

Doesn't Dubai have strict morality police that will arrest you for kissing in public etc.
Quote:The responsibilities of the 4,000-member force, known as the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, include enforcing strict gender separation in public places, and ensuring shops and businesses are closed during prayer times
Screw that
