http://expressionsofhopenapa.org/images/troubled_youth_various_y1in.jpg

Today's kids are very impatient and are very fast interms of everything, there is nothing called as elderly respect that you get from today's kids, they want to try everything at a go and if things are not happening their way they start cribbing, and we are seeing many kids going to psychologists to get help, in our days we didn't even know what a psychologist does, but today kids at a very young age are going through a lot of stress, and are having a troubled youth. So, what are the likely causes for the mindset of a troubled  youth??

Parent's allowing TV's to raise their kids

idea posted by Bindu Narayan Product Development Manager, Care Biomedicals

It has to be the busy life that we are leading today....which is making parents work doubly hard to ensure that their kids get the best of education and all the possibilities in life, and are forgetting to take care of their children and not being there with their kids when they really need them, and this sort of relationships are causing kids take shelter in TV, Internet and various other things, and they are literally growing up with them and they are doing things what they are seeing on these mediums. This is causing all the problem, hence kids are facing a lot of problems with nobody there to guide them is making life all the more difficult for them. So, this is one such cause for the mindset of a troubled youth.   Would like know others views regarding this.

The environment in which the child is raised is a major input factor in the growth of the child. Many factors related to the environment are - incessant watching of TV, improper focus on the child, not giving sufficient attention to the child, stress, etc. Hence, these environmental factors shape the outlook of the child. Since this is not shaped properly, the child suffers and needs the attention of a psychologist to free a troubled mind. Thanks for the referral, Bindu...

Cell phones, internet and the politicians have spoiled them.

idea posted by kanukurthy sudershanrao Operations Manager, Andhra Bank
The students were spoiled by the politicians by involving them in every agitation add to that the advent of cell phones, tv and internet which make them think that every thing will happy in a jiffy. They have not seen the wait in ques for getting your share of drinking water, daily quota of milk, rations etc so they do not have learnt the patience. Education is not inculcating patience due to competition. Parents also want their children to come first in every thing without understanding the competencies and wishes of the childre.

Well I better not comment anything except support the idea reluctantly because you may have already discovered the youth in me, atleast partially.

Parentage..

idea posted by Jaygopal Raghavan Marketing Manager, Landmark Group
Its all to do with the kind of parentage that a child receives in their young age. Too much of pampering or tighter controls can lead the child to get and be disturbed for a long time. Most important of all, parents shouldnt see their children as an extension of their dreams. They shouldnt try to achieve what they couldnt through their children. They have to nurture the child like a young sapling. Each has their own needs and wants.

Work Life Imbalance

idea posted by Shivaraj BE(IS), MBA student, St. Joseph College, Mangalore
Probably that's the result of work/life imbalance. Parents earn & only earn, kids suffers & only suffers.

Friends circle - Internet - Game parlours

idea posted by C Nijagunaradhya Planning engineer, Aarvee associates

Firstly its the environment of surrounding friends which grooms a child's behavioral attitude, character growth prospects and skills. Secondly, school kids are getting prone to social networking sites at younger age. But they are forcibly motivated towards dating, wrong happenings posted in few communities ,.etc. Parents need to keep an eye on their child's visited internet pages and social networking profiles. On weekends often children are getting hanged out at coffee pubs, game and hookah parlours. Also government needs to make stricter rules regarding this issue. Above all this parents need to spend quality time and monitor their children which is very less among working couples. Too much of pampering in wrong manner (huge pocket moneys) will make a child weak, dependent and irresponsible. So parents please wake up !

Helicopter Parent

idea posted by Mohammad Bakhsh Project Leader/Managing Consultant, Freelancer
Today's youth are disturbed because of " Helicopter parenting.They are so concerned about their children right from schooling to their academic decision and leave very little space for them to decide their future. I will quote Annie Zalezsak " life is not about possesing and clutching on to things". i think parent 's role should be limited to guidance and the rest should be left on their decision.

Not troubled any more

idea posted by Neerav Galathia Sales Engineer, Aerzen Machines (India) Pvt. Ltd.
By seeing some troubled it is not fair to guess that the whole generation is troubled. I don’t think the youths are troubled now-a-days; in fact they are more confident and competent than estimated by their ancestors. And that’s why the innovations go on, technology goes on. They are much more obstinate and stubborn in their belief and the persons firm in their inner beliefs never gets troubled.

Far from being Indian

Today no one cares about the Indian culture and no one is actually a proud Indian. They thinks to live life and enjoy but ultimately, they dont know how to live life.
