I have to admit that the subject on which I intend to write, it gives me some concern and frustration, firstly because I do not consider myself young, I'm not its "cool", and I fear not being sufficiently balanced. And then I do not want to fall into the general, in any case, not cease to be a personal, although I would like to address more generic issues that concern young people.
Among young people today, as in everything else, there is everything, are different from themselves, depending on their geographical environment and upbringing. Urban youth of inner cities, have little to do with living in rustic areas, or those who have had long educational process, of those who carry on their backs, school failure, nor from a structured family those who have suffered a breakdown and family breakdown. The youth is primarily diverse.
The truth is that we decided to take our children very early to school, daycare, leaving them with babysitters, isolate, with television pictures, and fill them with toys that have not built. Perhaps we have been very lax in their education and have protected them too much. Looking at young people and their ways of behavior and thinking, we have a bleak outlook at first sight. But make no mistake, all this is not a reflection of the precarious and burdensome basis of the departed and the cruel and sordid reality in which they live. Point out some of these elements:
FAMILY ENVIRONMENT
is where early education is received and can determine many of the attitudes / skills youth. The attitude of parents towards their children, despite all, is diverse. Ends find their positions more "radical" from the permissiveness and the most scandalous passivity of the fathers to their children, enabling every whim without requiring a minimum of delegating responsibility and social education in schools, television or group friends, to parents who use a strict discipline imposed authoritarianism and no dialogue with their ideas, protecting their children from the society in which they live. The passivity and permissiveness is the most common, which educates the irresponsibility, the chronic consumption (giving whims, giving too much money to children from 12-13 years), lack of respect for others (school indiscipline, bottles, crazy racing bike or car through the streets), ie, lack of ethics and civility. Schools can not give that ethics education is lacking, or are devoted to it, but now there is a new and controversial subject of "Education for citizenship." TV and games, evil influence, they become so in nanny and educator. Therefore lack the awareness of parents, communication and ability to teach ethical values \u200b\u200bessential for living in society. EDUCATION
Much of youth is a student. His thinking is that future graduates are doomed to failure. In addition, vocational training, which is proposed today as the best solution, is too specialized and highly practical, dropping any reference to culture. Our education responds to the old model of copying, memorization and promotes the examination forget everything memorized, it only serves to pass, flooding of boredom and indifference of students to the culture. While they are deceived live college after the carrot of a diploma or degree combined with a master, is the imaginary passport which will open the doors to success. The reality is exactly the opposite. Success depends on being yourself, the balance between rewarding work, good relationships and especially positive. Young people today, unlike previous generations, have access to multiple sources of information, overruling the traditional monopolies of knowledge.
WORK AND HOUSING
are factors that determine youth. Job insecurity, coupled with the low quality of labor contracts, affecting the vast majority today. This painful reality, harsh working conditions and lack of future prospects, leads inescapably to an ongoing frustration for motivation. If we add to this fact the inability of youth to access to adequate housing, which is the delayed impact of emancipation, independence difficulty of couples, etc.. it is not surprising that the desire of young people today are living life intense, euphoric and passionately. The globalized world has made the young a consumer set, as if that way of life was a absolute dogma. Download all this frustration, this reluctance vital, that anger evil contained in the weekends and some in the drug. It is an unconscious and desperate attempt to find moments of escape from everyday reality that frustrating by the euphoria caused by them. This is the world we are leaving.
Freedom to them is a key value, is the basic tool for achieving any goal. They do not accept impositions, only respect the evidence. They are practical and critical. The word before the picture loses strength and disqualify the sacrifice because, they say, is repressive for your life. Call themselves as sincere and authentic. This generation, obsessed with the Internet, education and an exaggerated permissive materialism, which was raised to believe in yourself first, are factors that can generate a contrast between the real and the ephemeral dream, creating high levels of depression and anxiety.
Our reality is that we continually ask ourselves: what we do, "condescending?", "Ban?," Get strong?, "pass?," surrender? In general treat them as if they were our projection. In turning to the young, we went to our youth memories, our past youth, our nostalgia and melancholy, if not our hopes for what could be and were not. The real life of young people is far away, somewhere else, and find it difficult to interpret in our habitual patterns. Look
things are calm and optimism. Our young people are worrying about anti-values, but also have enviable conditions. And our attitude would give them the confidence they deserve, provided it is held in a great sense of responsibility.
no mistake, everyday examples of the little characters in the Tele not do. The "movies" are only dreams of others and not worth to write our own history, in fact, we only serve those things that we experience personally, enabling us to be well and living in congruence with ourselves. In this way, contribute to improving our environment a little and that it is worth. Miguel F.
