Why are High Schoolers Leaving the Church?

Over the past ten years youth ministries across the Untitled States have seen a drastic and dishearten reality: 50% of students leave the church upon graduating from High School. On top of those stats, based on research done with over 400 ex-youth group students, 16% of students feel prepared to encounter life after youth group and 40% of students struggle to find a church after graduation. Why do you think this is?

Over the next couple weeks I will be writing to this specific topic, but for now, what are your thoughts? Why are high schoolers leaving church upon graduating from High School?
