CHILDREN NOWADAYS
school had started for a few weeks now. It seems that children are now burden with all sorts of activities for their studies. Just look at the size of their bags. Sometimes I pity these young children who are still in primary school. They have to bring too many books to school everyday. Maybe it's good maybe it's not.
Not only that! These young children nowadays are pressured by their parents with a lot of things. Some have to fulfill the parents' dreams and expectations, that they are not allow to make their own choice. They have no freedom to do so as their lives had been carefully planned by the parents since the day they were borned.
Not many parents really understand the needs of their offspring. The needs to be free to make choices. The needs to express themselves in ways which suit them. The needs to follow their instinct when they have to.
Parents are busy sending their small children to tuition classes to ensure they'll get the best result in their studies. Then, they'll have to attend other classes like music, piano, ballet, arts, drama or others. If those are their interest, then I guess it's ok. But... some parents push their children into doing things against the children's interest and desire.
Well... not all parents tend to push or force their children into following their demands. Hopefully parents will realize the importance of understanding the children's need and desire.
