Today’s teenagers have more stressful lives than previous generations. Discuss this view and give your own opinion.

As we were moving ahead at the
time
, our
life
is becoming more and more stressful day by day and these
also
implies to young ones. There are several reasons why
today
's
life
is more burdensome as compared to the previous era's of teenagers and for
this
to happen there are many factors which do play role in it and I totally agree with
this
point of view.
Firstly
, If we go 30-40 years back in
time
and compare that
time
with
today
's scenario, we can certainly say that
today
's
life
for children is much more hectic and troublesome.
For instance
, the amount of competition, which has increased for the children is unimaginable, getting admission in good school, having pressure to perform well in studies, expected to do well in board exams, attaining different
tutions
a cloth having a crisscross design
tartans
for different subjects, has created lots of complexity in
life
resulting in a stressful environment.
However
, if we consider all these things, with the previous generations, they did not have to deal with these types of tough situation and they were much
free
Suggestion
freer
and able to enjoy their
life
.
Therefore
, from these factors, we can say that,
today
's generation is facing, ample amount of
stress
in their
life
.
Secondly
,
today
, parent's want their children to be multi-talented and they do lots of comparison of their children with the other kids, and throw their expectations on their children.
For example
, In school if their friend' s
child
is going in swimming class and
then
this
parent will send their
child
to swimming class irrespective of
child
interest and like these, parents like to involve their children in lots of extra activities at very young age and
as a result
they don't get
time
to play and explore themself which creates lots of negative impact in their mind and
finally
resulting them in loads of
stress
.
Hence
, we can say that parents expectation about their
child
has increased as compared to the past, which ultimately result in lots of burden and
stress
. To conclude, it is very much true that the older generation children had very less
stress
and more peaceful
life
in comparison to
today
's generation kids, because, the expectation of parents have increased from their children and kids nowadays have to face lots of competition in their young age be it in studies or to perform well in exams.
