当调用结构上的方法时，goroutines不起作用

I'm trying to get into go and I'm facing a problem which appears when using go routines on a method of a struct. What I was expecting is that the code prints the following output:

Item 1 was asked if it's alive

Item 2 was asked if it's alive

But it's not printing anything. When I leave out the "go"routines (at struct1.isAlive()) it's working fine. How can I make the goroutines work?

package main

import (
    "fmt"
)

type somestruct struct {
    ID              int
    ItemName        string
}

func (s *somestruct) isAlive() (alive bool) {
    alive = true
    fmt.Printf("%s was asked if it's alive 
", s.ItemName)
    return
}


func main() {
    struct1 := somestruct{
        ID:1,
        ItemName:"Item 1"}

    struct2 := somestruct{
        ID:2,
        ItemName:"Item 2"}


    go struct1.isAlive()
    go struct2.isAlive()

</div>

The Issue is that the program exits before the functions could execute and print out to stdout.
One simple fix is to wait for both of the go routines to finish and then exit from main function.
Here is a link that you can refer : https://nathanleclaire.com/blog/2014/02/15/how-to-wait-for-all-goroutines-to-finish-executing-before-continuing/

here is your program implemented with WaitGroups

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "sync"
)

type somestruct struct {
    ID       int
    ItemName string
    wg       *sync.WaitGroup
}

func (s *somestruct) isAlive() (alive bool) {
    defer s.wg.Done()
    alive = true
    fmt.Printf("%s was asked if it's alive 
", s.ItemName)
    return
}

func main() {
    var wg sync.WaitGroup
    wg.Add(2)
    struct1 := somestruct{
        ID:       1,
        ItemName: "Item 1",
        wg:       &wg,
    }

    struct2 := somestruct{
        ID:       2,
        ItemName: "Item 2",
        wg:       &wg,
    }

    go struct1.isAlive()
    go struct2.isAlive()
    wg.Wait()
}
