The way that the education system has been set up in most parts of the world needs a big change. No doubt that it’s thanks to this education system that today I am able to write something (this article for example) and you are able to read it. It surely has its advantages but if we want a smarter world and a better future, it’s time to act now.
It might be a tough job for the authorities to change the Education System suddenly just like this, but this does not mean that if they are not going to change it, we must go by it. We can start by making small changes. As it is said that
If there are parents or teachers reading this article, please do give it a thought else the education system that is prevailing right now might ruin the future of the leaders of tomorrow. And if this cycle continues, this whole generation will be at a loss. So, be the change you want to see in the world. It starts with you and only you. It’s a sad fact that our education system has just taught us how to be better than others.
There is always competition everywhere; all the parents want their children to get good grades and come out first in class. Yeah, it is a good thing in a way to have your children coming out first and having the ‘Proud’ moment. But then? How will competing with others help him achieve his dreams if he is always busy fulfilling yours? Some parents even go as far as choosing and forcing their children to take up subjects that the child doesn’t want to study. And the poor child must agree to study these subjects against his wish.
Parents really have no idea how much damage they are causing to their kids. If a child has no interest in a specific subject, then he won’t be willing to study it, and this will surely affect his grades. And then the parents will say ‘Oh you are so lazy! You don’t like studying!’. But mind you! It’s you who chose these subjects for him to study when he wanted to study something else.
And there are cases too that the child has got very good grades even if he didn’t want to study these subjects and he has even made a career in that field of study. And let’s add to this, he even got a job. But just go and ask that person if he is happy if he says ‘Yes, I am happy’ then he is lying to you. One can never be happy by suppressing his desires and his wishes.
So, parents out there, please learn the difference between guiding your children towards their dreams and choosing your children’s dreams because a single step of yours at that point in time can decide the happiness of your children’s whole life. Give them the authority to make such decisions, later on, those children will be thankful to you for that.
