The thought - 'What are we giving our future Generations' has crossed my mind countless times since the past few years and specifically from the time the Corona Virus has entered our lives.
Earlier, it was the onslaught of the mobile games and online addiction while today, it has become almost mandatory for the adults to keep their kids at home and yes, keep them occupied.
Has the Corona Virus been a natural phenomena or was it humanly created to create havoc in the world? No one knows the answer except a chosen few and they are keeping their mouth shut!
To keep their little ones from getting infected, adults have to keep them indoors, but in the process, the kids have become more addicted to TV and mobile games.
I think the Millennials were the last of the generation to play outdoor games for longer duration of the day. Of course, we had the video games but we also had friends to play with and the lure of perfecting our games and spending time outside.
But today, due to Corona and the online addiction, we are taking the childhood away from our children. Whose fault? I, You, They?
A BIG NO!
IT'S OUR FAULT. COLLECTIVELY!
Because of these reasons, the children of today have become less tolerant, do not take no for an answer from either their teachers or their parents and have become more stubborn. If they are faced with rejection, they choose to run away or take their own lives by suicide.
Just a passing thought.
Kuldip.
