Challenges with Tolerance level of the Younger Generation
In certain areas of life I am not sure if we are progressing or going backwards. You open up a Newspaper and you get to read all sorts of crimes happening in the world around and it is so disturbing, specially when you read about Children and the Youth....
Today when I open up the Newspaper I get to read about many crimes but this one news has been very disturbing. It is about a girl who commits suicide for the reason that she was slapped in the school. The Girl was 13 years old, It is very shocking to read something like this. For such a small thing how can one decide to end up her life. This very clearly shows how much of tolerance level she had. Now this is not the only incident, every day we get to hear these type of incidents happening in all different forms.
This raises a big question. How are we raising our Children? It is not about this one case but the overall mental health level of the younger generation. Something small happens and they just take off, sometimes they get outrageous or sometimes they just don't have the capacity to deal with it. Even if 10% of our younger generation is moving in this direction it is not good and a clear threat. Children are getting into depression and their stress levels are increasing and this is happening for very petty matters, which clearly shows they are not well equipped to handle the pressures of life.
I have even seen this in the Corporate lives. The demands are more and the commitment towards work is less. Easy lives are expected, they do not like anyone giving them instructions. I worked for an organization with a size of 100000 and the number of grievance cases that used to come from the age group of 24 to 30 was the highest, and it would take us days to make them understand some simple matters.
There are a lot of reasons why they must have grown up in such a capacity but at the end of it all said and done the parents play a major role in their development. So if I have to blame someone then it is clearly the Parents.
Parents get so busy in their own work life that many a times they miss out on these little aspects of their children growing up. I personally feel that till a child is 15 years old, the child needs a constant hand holding. Parents need to be vigilant about their behavior and expressions. While they give their children their space they also need to be equally at a watch.
Intolerance has it's own aspects. It is sometimes good that they have it, but only against wrong things happening and not getting subdued by it, then the intolerance is accepted, but what action is being taken towards the intolerance is more important. While a small group of them are in the weaker category there is a big side of them on the other side who are bold and courageous and going all out to conquer the world. Along with intolerance if they can also have a sense of responsibility then that is the perfect combination for them.
In this particular case of the girl committing suicide, it can be possible that the reason may be something else but the whole idea of committing suicide be it for any reason is not justified.

Uhmm, I think that human society is heading towards an overall wrong direction. Why would a child so young kill herself for a slap? That just doesn't have any sense, there have to be more much and the slap was just the final detail that ended with her desire to live. IMHO we need to think again what is it that we have should be focusing on! We need to expend more time with our family, it is for them we work so hard in the first place. How do you think that the challenges of being a more productive society can be addressed while expending enough time with your children to secure a healthy younger generation?

That's true, just the slap does not make sense. But the whole thing is be it whatever situation children should have that confidence to share with their parents or if the parents are the culprit themselves then it becomes difficult to deal, cause then they are the root cause for all the wrong doings.

Great post and as I in the age category you mention, I would say that you are right on some parts. Some people are just not raised well and it is the parent, teacher and society fault.
On the other hand I work at a top job and I am sometimes frustrated by the number of acquaintances and not efficient people I meet. This is something our generation do not accept I believe.
Being there because you know someone or through political corporate games is disgusting to me.
I have also no fear to say it out loud. This is the difference, we are not « scared » to lose a job and therefore if we do not like it, we say it more easily.
This is just my own take.
Take care :)

I would any day support the person be it at whatever level if he/she is on right stands, but there were times when they would not be able to handle pressures of work and come up with all possible issues because they want to work in comfort zones. Every type of work has it own challenges so one should be prepared for that. There have been instances when these guys would go to an extent of giving us threats that they would commit suicide and then we need to go in for police protection, such is their capability of managing stress. You prove your point with valid reasoning is acceptable but just fighting it out for wrong reasons is not. The bigger the organizations the trends spread out faster, if one gets an easy way out everyone tries the same trick.
Corporate always have their dark side that is true but suicide is not the solution for any type of problem.
It is sad to see one taking their life so casually :-(
Thank you for sharing your thoughts @vlemon
Wow, to be honest I didn’t expect these issues. Isn’t it more due to cultural background because I have never heard of such issues in Europe.
Thank you for sharing your point of view and experience.

the fruits looking very good
So true dear. The level of self confidence is very low for kids nowadays. I'm not sure if media is polluting them. Parents working in corporate companies are also not take good care of their children I would say. They should only take responsibility to teach them good values.

There are many external factors that impact their mental health so the most important who is responsible are the parents is what I feel.
There is a proposal in my country's government to reduce the age that a child can get liable for their crimes from 18 down to only 12 years old because simply the children of today are different, they do crimes like grown-ups.
They are now very exposed to influences via technology so we are now living in a very dangerous world. @nainaztengra
OMG 12 is too less, though I understand the children of today's generation can think much more than we we believe but still a chance needs to be given to them to improve if they are on the wrong path and not go very strict on them. At that age it is very easy to get influenced.
Very nice article, the role of parents in maintaining very important, may crime be reduc by the attention of all parties, I like to read it, @nainaztengra,☺️

You are correct that most of the blame can be placed at both teachers and parents, although without knowing the true reasons why a 13 year old would take their own life we can only surmise - was it the slap from the teacher or the feeling of shame her parents would hear about it. While often we hear of parents being too lenient with their children, excessive pressure to perform and achieve can be just as bad - and in some cases have far greater consequences.
#thealliance #witness
In such cases the parents are surely to be blamed. At times they put too much of pressure on children to achieve their own goals and dreams without understanding the capability of their child which is the worst thing that they do.
That is sad...and I feel like the art of parenting has been lost. Years ago, society started butting into how parents should and shouldn't raise their kids. Mostly burning parents that were really putting consistant effort into their kids. Those parents seemed "too harsh". Now, parents (generally speaking) let their kids take the lead. But kids don't have any reference or experience to take the lead. If someone were to apply for a job that was entry level, would the CEO of the company allow them to do whatever they want because it would make them feel good? No, it would be a mess because the entry level worker doesn't have enough experience.
This is a tough topic, but shining more light is always good.
Thank you @freedomtowrite for sharing your thoughts. We are moving at such a fast pace that a lot of old ethics and values are left behind. The Parents themselves are into competition either at their work place or in their social forums and that is what they are ignorantly inducting their children into. The desire and greed for more and more.
