Nowadays children are experiencing increased educational, social and commercial pressure. What are the reasons for this? What can be a solution to reduce the pressure?

It is fair to say that,

children

are going through a lot of stress nowadays, i.e. in the social, educational, and commercial fields as well. There are various reasons behind

this

pressure which I will explore, before presenting the solutions to

this

issue. As a matter of fact, adults these days expect too much from

children

which puts performance pressure on their minds.

For example

, when the exams are near,

parents

start to force the

children

to study hard and they set targets for

children

, which are sometimes too high to achieve, and

children

go through a lot of stress to meet the expectations of their guardians.

Secondly

, the comparison is always there.

Parents

often compare their wards to their neighbour's

child

or with the relative's

child

, in every aspect like studies, games and competitions etc. It puts the burden on the minds of

children

to do better and make their

parents

happy, even if they are not interested in those fields. Because of

this

, they go through educational and commercial pressure.

Thirdly

, as

children

nowadays are too busy doing school, tuition classes and preparing for competitions they lack social skills as their social interactions are almost zero. In order to solve

this

issue, the

parents

need to understand the needs and interests of their

child

. They should support their

child

if he/she is interested in doing something creative other than studies. They should definitely guide their

child

, but should not force him/her. More importantly,

parents

should stop the comparison between

children

and should understand that each

child

is special in its own way. Guardians should respect the choices made by the

children

and should spend some quality time with the

children

so that, the

children

can share their problems with them. In conclusion, I would say that each

child

should be respected and

parents

should help them to feel comfortable and confident,

instead

of putting stress on their minds. The Government should

also

do some initiatives like yoga fun classes, drama centres, or creative art classes so that

children

can spend some time enjoying their interests and can

also

get relief from mental pressures.
