So So Society

We all talk about how we are born and brought up in our lives. It seems like a small thing but the way we are grown up matters a lot in our social build-up. Today, I want to talk about something that matters in our lives a lot 'Our social conditioning'. We will be talking about how we used to be conditioned in our parents' generations and probably how we are conditioned compared to the fact that kids nowadays are conditioned. First and foremost I would want to talk about the basic treatment of kids. In our times, when we were young, we were treated to be strong and we were left to do and learn small things on our own like climbing stairs, playing outside, sometimes getting dirty and our demands were not always fulfilled whereas nowadays kids are pampered.  I guess we all have heard this term and we have used it for kids who are always kept in a bubble.

How does this affect the mental state of a Person? How simply can these social pressures ruin any individual's life?  We all have such moments in ...

Don’t you think it gets tricky for us as a teenager or students to complete all our parents' expectations… but the weird part is that no one understands it. Every time a teenager is not able to fulfill the expectations we are treated in such a way that we are meant to do the such things that we are not capable of at times.  This peer pressure can be a lot. We as kids do not want to disappoint our parents but if you remember the last blog, we talked about stress and how Genz faces it, and how we choose to escape from it.  What exactly peer pressure is? Who faces the pressure the most? Why do kids face it? Why do our elders put this pressure on us?  Peer pressure is what we kids get from our society or family or friends mainly parents, and can be a way of influencing our choices of life or in life… We kids, the new upcoming generations feel this pressure the most…  To answer the why questions above, it is important for us to dig a little deeper into our parents' though...
