Translate the following text into Spanish.

Text to be translated: 

Of all the problems that worry teenagers nowadays, it could be said that unemployment is the worst since it often leads to poverty and anti-social behaviour. However, a friend of mine, who had been out of work for more than two years, took part in a training programme for young people and, after having learnt new skills, now has a full-time job with good prospects for the future. He hopes that other young people do what he did and improve their chances in life.

Translated text:

De todos los problemas que podrían preocupar a los adolescentes hoy en día, se podría decir que el desempleo es el peor ya que a menudo lleva a la pobreza y a un comportamiento antisocial. Sin embargo, un amigo mío, que llevaba sin trabajar más de dos años, participó en un programa para gente joven y, tras haber aprendido nuevas habilidades, ahora tiene un trabajo a tiempo completo con buenas perspectivas. Espera que otra gente joven haga lo que el hizo y mejoren sus oportunidades en sus vidas.
