Nowadays, children are facing enormous pressure from their parents to become successful in life. In my opinion, this is a positive change, even though there are some drawbacks. In this essay, I will explain why I prefer it.
These days, Parents tend to put their children under severe pressure as they wish for a successful future for them. They are trying to improve the educational background of children or to sport, ensuring they will be healthy. As a result, we have children with well-knowledge in education and sports, so such children can easily pass an exam at a prestigious university, win a scholarship or grant, and study free of charge. Moreover, after graduating from university, they will be able to find well-paid jobs and feed their family. They will not have a problem with money. They will be financially independent. They will win at life.
On the other hand, these changes may have a negative influence on children’s mental health. Due to a lot of pressure, they won’t have enough time for themselves. This means that they will have no hobbies and happy childhood that every kid has to have, leading to depression and stress.
In conclusion, although parents do all these for the future of their children, they have to ask their children what they want from this life and give freedom to act as they want.
