Origin
One of the group of British playwrights who wrote 'kitchen sink' dramas in the 1950s, or people of a like mind. The plays centred on the unsatisfactory nature of the UK's class system and working-class life. The term was applied most notably to John Osbourne and it was from his 'Look Back in Anger', first performed in 1956, that the phrase was derived.

Young Definition from Social Science Dictionaries & Glossaries
To dream of seeing young people, is a prognostication of reconciliation of family disagreements and favorable times for planning new enterprises. To dream that you are young again, foretells that you will make mighty efforts to recall lost opportunities, but will nevertheless fail. For a mother to see her son an infant or small child again, foretells that old wounds will be healed and she will take on her youthful hopes and cheerfulness. If the child seems to be dying, she will fall into ill fortune and misery will attend her. To see the young in school, foretells that prosperity and usefulness will envelope you with favors.
Ten Thousand Dreams Interpreted, or "What's in a dream": a scientific and practical exposition; By Gustavus Hindman, 1910. For the open domain e-text see: Guttenberg ProjectYoung Definition from Science & Technology Dictionaries & Glossaries
When used to describe a planetary surface, "young" means that the visible features are of relatively recent origin, i.e. that older features have been destroyed by erosion or lava flows. Young surfaces exhibit few impact craters and are typically varied and complex; in contrast, an "old" surface is one that has changed relatively little over geologic time. The surfaces of Earth and Io are young; the surfaces of Mercury and Callisto are old.
